Shuko-ji
高岡市伏木古国府１７−１
A temple of the Hongan-ji branch of the Jodo Shinshu sect, Shuko-ji holds numerous cultural properties, including National Treasures and Important Cultural Properties. It is affectionately known locally as 'Furukohan.'
History
Founded in 1471 by Rensei, the fourth son of Rennyo, as Tsuchiyama Gobo, the temple underwent several relocations. It moved to its current location in 1584 when Sasa Narumasa donated the land of Furu-Kuni Castle. During the Edo period, it received the patronage of the Maeda clan of the Kaga Domain, and the 10th daimyo, Maeda Harunaga, took his monastic vows here. A large-scale restoration and preservation project aimed at reviving the temple's Edo-period appearance began in 1998 and was completed in 2021.
