Virtual New Innami County 33 Kannon Pilgrimage #30 Fukuden-ji Temple

 

     Fukuden-ji Temple was located in today's Tomosawa Kakogawacho, Kakogawa, Hyogo 675-0035.  Tomosawa Village was first listed in the Keicho Kuni-ezu, or the Keicho Maps of the Provinces, which was based on the land survey of the feudal lords' territories and the lands of temples and shrines across Japan conducted in September, 1605.

     Today, the Tomosawa area has only Jugan-ji Temple as a Buddhist temple.  Fukuden-ji Temple might have been abolished due to the movement to abolish Buddhism and to destroy Buddhist images at the beginning of the Meiji Period.

     The Tomosawa area has Hachiman Shrine, and Tomozawa Community Center is adjoins the shrine.  Presumably, Fukuden-ji Temple was the shrine temple of Hachiman Shrine, was abolished after  the Meiji Restoration Government issued the Gods and Buddhas Separation Order in 1868, and its site became the community center.
