Keigen-ji
世田谷区喜多見４丁目１７−１
A Jodo-shu (Pure Land) temple known for its connection to the Edo clan (later the Kitami clan). It houses the main hall built in 1716, which is said to be the oldest temple structure in Setagaya Ward.
History
Founded during the Heian period by the Edo clan in the area surrounding the current Imperial Palace. It was relocated to Kitami in 1468 CE (Eiroku 11) and converted to the Jodo-shu sect in 1540 CE (Bunmei 19). In 1636 CE (Kan'ei 13), it received a vermilion seal letter from Tokugawa Iemitsu, establishing its status as a prestigious temple.
