Recorded origin, in the register's own words
영원사는 신라 문무왕 16년(676)에 의상대사가 창건하였다고 전해지는 절로서 오랫동안 폐사되었다가 1964년 김병준 주지에 의하여 중건되었다. 경내에는 창건 당시의 유물은 없다.
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.
