The temple was founded around 822.

. read wikipedia : Hōjō Tokiyori .
Tokiyori climbed the mountain and had a wonderful view of a matsu 松 pine tree in the evening sun.
The name 御宿町 Onjuku "town where an honorable person stayed" relates to this event.
Tokiyori wrote a poem about a pine tree in the evening sun:
「御宿(みやど)せし そのときよりと ひととはば 網代(あじろ)の海に 夕影(ゆうかげ)の松」

In the compound is a cave, 大日洞 Dainichi Den, dating to the Kamakura period.
In the cave is a statue of Dainichi Nyorai and Naminori Kannon 波乗り観音 Kannon riding the waves.
People come to this Kannon to pray for the good health and good luck
of relatives or friends, but never for themselves.
