History

Founded in 1403 CE by Ikuchi Morisada, with the founding abbot being Gyuuchuu Shuuyou, it was originally established as a Rinzai sect temple. In 1432 CE, the National Treasure three-story pagoda was built, likely by a figure associated with the Ikuchi clan. In 1444 CE, Ashikaga Yoshimasa designated it as a place for prayers for the shogun. During the Edo period, it was converted to the Soto sect, and it is currently designated as the eleventh station of the Chugoku 33 Kannon Pilgrimage.
