Recorded origin, in the register's own words
신라 49대 헌강왕때 도선국사가 비보사찰로 창건. 주산(백공산)이 객산(교룡산)보다 미약하여 허약한 자세를 보강하기 위해 세움.
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.
