Eikoin Jizodo

福岡市東区馬出5丁目35

A temple serving as a sub-temple of the Shabara Shrine's temple complex, featuring a city-designated cultural property wooden seated statue of Shakyamuni Buddha and a lantern hall associated with a tea ceremony between Sen no Rikyu and Toyotomi Hideyoshi.

History

Originally a sub-temple of the Zasu Monastery, which was part of the Shabara Shrine's temple complex, it was established during the Kan'ei era (1624–1644) under the patronage of Kuroda Nagamasa, the second lord of Fukuoka Domain. During the Haibutsu Kishaku (destruction of Buddhism) movement in the early Meiji period, the monk Kenju of the court preserved Buddhist relics related to the Shabara Shrine and its temple complex by transferring them to Eikoin.
