History
Originally established as a Tendai sect temple by the Great Master Jigaku Daishi Ennin in Uchigoe Village, Kishi District, Kii Province. The 25th abbot, Choujin Seiko, converted to Jodo Shinshu and renamed the temple Choukakuji. The 26th abbot, Keisei, married the daughter of Honen Shonin of Hongan-ji, consolidating the temple. When the Asano clan was transferred to Hiroshima, the temple received its grounds and main hall under the patronage of the domain lord Asano Nagamasa.
