In 684, during the Hakuhō era, a temple complex consisting of seven halls and 300 monks' quarters was built in the area around Mt. Mitake in Nishi-Ano Village as a temple commissioned by Emperor Tenmu. However, due to war and other factors, the temple gradually fell into disrepair. A monk named Yōshun, lamenting this state of affairs, moved the principal image of the temple, the Eleven-faced Kannon, to its current location, which he felt was more suitable for the Pure Land of Kannon.
The origins of our temple are unknown, but it is believed to date back to the Nanbokucho period.
The temple was affiliated with the Jingu Shrine (Sakae-cho, Tokoname City), which enshrines the deities of the Inner Shrine and Outer Shrine of Ise Jingu, and continued to exist until the early Meiji period, as the Seigi Temple, which is the temple of Ise Jingu, owned land in this area, which was called Seigi.
