A Zen Buddhist temple of the Myoshinji sect located at the site of Azuchi Castle, with a history of being established by Oda Nobunaga.
History
Established in the Tenmon era on the slopes of Azuchi Mountain by Oda Nobunaga. It is said that Nobunaga constructed the temple by relocating numerous buildings from nearby shrines and temples, including the Nioumon (Two Kings Gate) and the three-story pagoda, which are designated Important Cultural Properties. During the Edo period, the abbot was selected from the Oda clan, and memorial services such as the 100th anniversary of Nobunaga's death were held here.
