Recorded origin, in the register's own words
신라 문무왕때 이상대사가 창건시 무림사였으나 무림사 남쪽으로 크기 5미터 정도의 바위가 있어 무암사로 개칭. 영조 16년(1740)에 중수한 것임.
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.
