Recorded origin, in the register's own words
신라 문무왕 6년 원효대사가 금산보광사 세우고 사운이 융성해지자 보광사 근처에 많은 사찰을 세웠는데 이중 하나로 추측.
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.
