History

Founded in 1113 CE (Juei 1) by the Grand High Priest Chizan as a Shingon sect temple, it was later abandoned during the Jogen era. In 1230 CE (Kanki 2), Sazaki, the son of Gen Iga-no-kami Masanobu, became a monk and revived the temple. In 1232 CE (Tei'e 1), he paid respects to the Saint Shinran and received an image of Amida Nyorai (Amitabha Buddha).
