    Tips

    June 27, 2024

    Koufukuin Temple was founded as a branch of the Hakone Gongen in the Sengoku period (Warring States Period) in the mid-16th century. It was badly damaged in 1590 when Hideyoshi Toyotomi attacked Odawara (the Battle of Odawara). Later, Leyasu Tokugawa, the first shogun of the Tokugawa era, rebuilt the temple. Koufukuin Temple was converted to the Soto sect in the Edo era and was an important parish temple. In the Meiji Restoration government, the temple was abolished because the government boycotted Buddhism. Most of the Buddhist statues and tools kept in the temple were disposed of. Some damaged statues and tools have survived the testament to the prosperity of the area at that time.
