Daikeizan Goutokuji (大谿山 豪徳寺)


 🛕


In 1633, when Setagaya became the territory of the Hikone Domain, the Ii family, the lords of the Hikone Domain, designated "Kotoku-in," which had been built in 1480, as their Edo family temple.


Later, in 1659, the temple's name was changed to Gotokuji after the posthumous Buddhist name of the second lord, Ii Naotaka, "Kyushoinden Gotoku Ten'ei Daikoji," and the temple grounds were developed into a grand scale suitable for a daimyo family cemetery, which continues to this day.


It well preserves the form of a daimyo family cemetery from the Edo period and is the largest nationally designated historic site in the surrounding area.
