The temple was repeatedly rebuilt following fires, but after its destruction by fire in 1717 it took more than a century to reconstruct the buildings, and it was only in 1819 (Bunsei era) when they were finally reconstructed thanks to contributions by benefactors. 創建以来たびたび焼失と再建を繰り返したが、江戸時代の享保2年(1717年)の火災による焼失後は1世紀以上再建されず、文政2年(1819年)、篤志家の寄付によってようやく再建された。 |
