Recorded origin, in the register's own words

신라 문무왕(661~680)때 원효대사가 창건하였고, 유물로는 향토유적 제1호(1986.4.10)로 지정된 팔각칠층석탑이 유명하다.

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.
