相良家を祟った化け猫の怨霊をなぐさめるために建てられた。狛犬ならぬ狛猫が山門の両脇に建ち、化け猫となった猫の墓も裏手に残る。敷地内の観音堂は国指定重要文化財で、創建当初を再現した華麗な装飾も見どころ。また、相良三十三観音二十四番札所でもある。
It was built to relieve the ghost of the monster cat that cursed the Sagara family. Komaneko, not Komainu, stand on both sides of the temple gate, and the tomb of a cat that became a monster cat also remains behind it. The Kannon Hall on the site is a nationally designated important cultural property, and the splendid decoration that recreates the beginning of its construction is also a highlight. It is also the 24th pilgrimage site of Sagara's 33 Kannon pilgrimage sites.
