This is the family temple of the Satake Kita clan, the head of the Satake clan that ruled Kakunodate during the Edo period. The main gate, built in 1753 (the third year of the Horeki era), is the oldest in the town. The main gate of the neighboring Hoshinji Temple was also built around the same time. The main hall, built in 1763 (the third year of the Horeki era), is also impressive. The graveyard of the Satake Kita clan is located behind the kuri (temple priest's quarters), but it is not open to the public and cannot be entered. Kakunodate was a battlefield during the Boshin War, and the clan won with reinforcements from various Kyushu domains. Samurai who died in battle in Kakunodate and its surrounding areas in the early Meiji era are buried here. Relief soldiers from Choshu, Hirado, Omura, Satsuma, and Kokura are buried here, but the Omura clan's war dead were later moved to the Omura Imperial Army Cemetery. The rest of the war dead continue to rest here, far from their hometowns.
