Recorded origin, in the register's own words
신라 경순왕 2년 대경대사가 창건. 최치원이 부성군(현서산) 태수역임 시 공부하던 곳임.
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.
