History
Koenji Temple of the Tendai sect has a history spanning more than 400 years. It was granted temple grounds by order of Date Masamune to serve as a prayer site for pacifying the Kimon (demon gate) of the castle town. It holds a history of performing rituals for the earth deities during the construction of Sendai Honmaru (the main keep area). Until the Meiji era, it served as the fourth mountain in the Yudono-san Daishin pilgrimage circuit in Yamagata.
