Recorded origin, in the register's own words

이 고장의 중심인 폐성지가 개가 달아나는 형상으로 주구산이라 부르면서 1576년(선조9년) 황응규(黃應奎)가 달아나는 개를 머물게 해야한다는 지리학설에 따라 절을 세웠다1816년(순조16년)에 장옥대사가 중수하여 오늘에 이르고 있다.

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.
