Uchifune-ji
南部町内船3599
A Nichiren sect temple founded by Saito Kin'go Yorimoto, who was praised by Nichiren Daishonin as 'the first believer of the Lotus Sutra in Japan.'
History
The temple's origins are said to date back to 1277, when Saito Kin'go Yorimoto built a private Buddhist hall within his residence. In 1285, he formally established the residence as a temple, initially naming it Saito-yama Seijubo. The temple suffered fires during the Kansei era and twice during the Ansei era. The current main hall and storehouse were rebuilt in 1855.
