Suma-ji (Suma Temple)
〒654-0071 兵庫県神戸市須磨区須磨寺町４丁目６−８
The head temple of the Shumon-shu Suma-ji-ha sect, officially named Fukujou-ji. It is known as a temple associated with Taira no Atsumori and houses important cultural properties, including a standing statue of Eleven-Faced Kannon.
History
It was established to enshrine a statue of Kannon that a fisherman pulled from the sea in the early Heian period. It is said that in 886 CE (Ninna 2), Ueno-yama Fukujou-ji was built on its current site by imperial decree from Emperor Kougou. The temple is also known for having a mound marking the burial site of Taira no Atsumori's head. Despite repeated destruction by war and earthquakes, it has been rebuilt many times to reach its present state.
