Recorded origin, in the register's own words

예로부터 반야선터라 알려져 있는 禪의 도량으로 병자호란 이전에는 승려가 100여명이나 기거한 큰 절 이었다고 한다. 옛날에는 한적사라고도 하였으며 1910년경 이장녀 보살이 암자를 짓고 남산사라 하였다

This paragraph is the origin and history field of the traditional temple register published by the Ministry of the Interior and Safety, copied exactly. We leave it in Korean rather than translating it, because a translation would put founding dates, people and schools of Buddhism into words the source never used. Nothing here was added or edited by us.
