Recorded origin, in the register's own words
918년(고려 태조 원년)에 성명 미상의 스님이 南岳寺라는 이름으로 창건했다고 전해짐. 석불의 규모로 보아 고려시대부터 상당규모의 가람이 경영되었던 것으로 보이며, 현재의 약사사 건물은 1972년 신도들의 시주로 건립
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.
