Jeonnamgwangjutonghapteukbyeol-si. The register lists its founding year as 서기1309.
The public register has no coordinates for this temple, so the on-site stamp does not work here. Keep the visit in your own memory instead.
Recorded origin, in the register's own words
초창은 미상 영조대왕의 자모 최복순 궁녀가 이절에서 기도하여 영조대왕이 탄생하였다고 전해옴.
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.
