History

Shukai Shojin, the 22nd abbot of Shajunin, entered final meditation on March 21, 1780 CE (An'ei 9). The hall was built in 1779 CE (An'ei 8). The paintings on the ceiling of the worship hall were created by the painter Murayama Chidō, and the Bonji calligraphy is the work of the high priest Yūga Sōjō.
