Dentsu-in

文京区小石川３丁目１４−６

★4.2(783)

A Jodo-shu (Pure Land) temple known as one of the Three Sacred Mountains of Edo and serving as the memorial temple for Oda-no-kata, the mother of Tokugawa Ieyasu.

History

Founded in 1415 CE (Oei 22) by the Jodo-shu priest Seikyo. In 1599 CE (Keicho 4), Tokugawa Ieyasu buried the remains of his mother, Oda-no-kata, at this site and transferred the Jufuku-ji temple to establish Dentsu-in, granting it its current name. The temple received land grants from the Edo Shogunate and was designated as the second-ranked memorial site for the Tokugawa shogunal family, following Zojo-ji, earning its place as one of the 'Three Sacred Mountains of Edo.'
