Recorded origin, in the register's own words
794년 신라 원성왕 10년 緣會國師가 창건(삼국사기)
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.
