History
Established in 1628 CE (Kan'ei 5) in the vicinity of Kinusuke-machi in Edo as one of the listening halls for the teachings of the Bukkake sect. It was burned down three times, including during the Ten'na Great Fire, and relocated to its current location in Ryūsen in 1683 CE (Ten'na 3). The main hall was completely destroyed in the Kanto Earthquake but was rebuilt in reinforced concrete in 1930 CE (Shōwa 5).
