Recorded origin, in the register's own words
신라 문무왕 15년 원효대사가 창건하여 견강사라 하였다가 768년에 선암사라 부르게 되었다. 1581년 4차에 걸쳐 중수하였고 1868년 중건하였다.
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.
