Hōdai-in Sub-temple
Hōdai-in Betsuin was formerly known as Shōkyū-ji. Located to the west of Kunozan Tōshō-gū, it is the family temple of Sakakibara Shōkyū, who served closely by the side of Tokugawa Ieyasu and enjoyed his deep trust.
On April 17, 1616 (Genna 2), when Tokugawa Ieyasu passed away at Sunpu Castle, the second shogun, Hidetada, immediately ordered the construction of Toshogu Shrine on Mount Kunō. At that time, Sakakibara Teruhisa was appointed as the first chief priest and served as the head priest of Kunōzan Toshogu Shrine.
