Onsenji (Yuma Onsen)

神戸市北区有馬町1643 有馬山温泉寺

3.9(215)

A temple of the Obaku sect located in the Yuma Onsen hot spring town, enshrining the Medicine Buddha (Yakushi Nyorai) as its principal image. It possesses numerous historical structures, including the Yakushi-do (Medicine Hall), and holds many designated cultural properties.

History

It is said to have been founded in 724 CE (Shinmi 1) by the monk Gyoki to aid in the recovery of Yuma Onsen. The temple was destroyed by a flood in 1097 CE (Jutoku 1) but was rebuilt in 1191 CE (Kenkyu 2) by the monk Ninze Shonin. During the Meiji era, the Shingon sect Onsenji was closed due to the Haibutsu Kishaku (anti-Buddhist movement), but the Obaku sect Seiryoin, which had served as its Oku-no-in (inner sanctuary), inherited the temple's registration.
