Fukuju-ji (福聚寺) is an Ōbaku Zen temple in Kokurakita-ku, Kitakyūshū, Fukuoka, Japan. Its honorary sangō prefix is Kōjuzan (広寿山). Fukuju-ji is one of two bodaiji (菩提寺), or funeral temples, dedicated to Ogasawara Tadazane, the first daimyō of Kokura Domain. (The other is Toyokawa's Rinzai-ji.)
History
[edit]The temple was founded in 1665 by Ogasawara Tadazane with support from Sokuhi Nyoitsu, a Chinese monk.[1] In 1669, Ogasawara Tadataka (小笠原忠雄), the second daimyō of Kokura, began planning the construction of the temple such as Kaisandō hall, the main hall, a bell tower and so on.
Many temple structures were destroyed by fire in the Summer War of 1866.[2][3] However, much of the temple and its numerous annexes, include the Buddha-Hall (仏殿 butsuden), the Chinese style architecture rebuilt in 1802, was survived after the war.
