Gansenji Temple

高松市御坊町3−2

A temple located in Ogobo-cho, Takamatsu City, Kagawa Prefecture. It was part of the temple district (Temple Town) that formed the defensive line to the south of Takamatsu Castle.

History

It is believed to have been established as a district within the Takamatsu Castle town. The earliest record of the district appears in a map of the Takamatsu Castle town dated to 1644 CE (Kangyo 17). The district was home to numerous temples, including Koseiji Byoin, Shoboji, Muryujoin, Tokuhoji, Saifukuji, and Gansenji. In 1945, the Takamatsu air raid destroyed 100% of the district, burning down the temple complexes (Garan) that had stood for several centuries since the Edo period.
