Recorded origin, in the register's own words

- 1871년 흥선대원군이 1840년 가야사를 불지르고 그후 아버지 묘를 쓰고 왕이 되자 보은의 뜻으로 절을 세워 보덕사라 칭했다.

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.
