Recorded origin, in the register's own words
정확한 창건 연혁은 전해지지 않고 있으나 조선 광해군 12년(1620년)에 무념스님이 중건하였고 영조 27년(1757)에 치화스님이 다시 재건하였다고 전해지고 있음. 첫 이름은 동림사였으나 수암사라고도 불리었으며 외말사가 되면서 운흥사로 불리게 되었음.
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.
