Yusenji Temple

Yusenji Temple

Yusenji Temple was founded in 1568, with its precincts built on the ruins of an ancient great temple called Daikoji Temple, which itself was built during the Hakuho era (from the late 7th century until the beginning of the 8th century).
The Daikoji Temple had the same monastery layout as Yakushiji Temple in Nara prefecture, and it is presumed that there were magnificent buildings, including an inner gate, a main hall, an auditorium and west and east towers at that time.
A large stone carefully kept on the right side of the main hall of Yusenji Temple was the cornerstone of a center pillar of the west tower.
It is a precious object that helps us learn about the architectural styles at the time, and it has been designated as an archaeological cultural property by Mishima city.
