Gokurakuji (Gokuraku-ji Temple)

名古屋市中区大須2丁目5−20

3.4(10)

An independent temple of the Jodo-shu Nishi Sanzenrinji-ha sect located in Osu, Nakaku, Nagoya. The principal image is a seated statue of Amida Nyorai (Amitabha Buddha), traditionally said to have been created by the monk Eshin Sozu.

History

It is said to have been founded by the monk Ryonin during the Jōchō era (1132–1135 CE), originally as a temple of the Dainembutsu-shu sect. The temple was washed away by a flood in 1532 CE (Bunmei 1). It was relocated to its current site and rebuilt during the Keichō era (1604 CE). In 2021, it became an independent temple, separating from the Jodo-shu Nishi Sanzenrinji-ha sect.
