Recorded origin, in the register's own words

화암사는 고찰사이었으나 폐허가 되어 오다가 1938년 김승원이 청진암굴을 재건하였음. 재건 당시에는 바위굴 속에 법당이 있었음. 1976년 석굴 앞 좌측에 원통보전, 우측에 요사를 중건함.

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.
