History

Founded by residents from Kanda Renjaku-machi who relocated following the Meireki Great Fire in the early Edo period, it was originally established as a temple of the Jodo Shinshu Honganji school. After collapsing during a typhoon in 1700 CE (Genroku 13), it was revived by Kenso Genyo of the Obaku sect and renamed Zenrin-ji.
