History
Founded in 1221 CE (Jōkyū 3) by Seraida Yoshitsune, with the founding monk (kaisan) being Shakuyō-ei Chō. In the early Muromachi period, it was ranked as one of the Ten Great Monasteries of the Kantō region (Kantō Jūsetsu). During the Edo period, it was converted to the Tendai sect by Tenkai. The temple has a history of receiving the patronage of Seraida Yoshitsune, who is considered an ancestor of the Tokugawa clan, and was also employed by the Edo Shogunate.
