黒石市山形町８１ / 81 Yamagatamachi, Kuroishi-shi, Aomori

It belongs to the Daigo shool of Shingon Buddhism 真言宗醍醐派.

The main statue is 勝軍地蔵尊 Shogun Jizo, General Jizo

The temple was founded in 1654 on behalf of the daimyo 津軽土佐守信義 Tsugaru Nobuyoshi (1619 - 1655). The founding priest was 日蔵 Nichizo. The Tsugaru Kuroishi clan protected the temple.
黒石三代領主津軽政兜 Tsugaru Masataka added more riches to the temple and made it the votive temple of his clan in 1697.

Tsugaru Tamenobu 津軽為信 (1550 - 1608) had build the Atago Shrine 愛宕宮 in Kuroishi and offered a statue of Shogun Jizo. The hall was called Atago Gongen 愛宕権現 at the top of mount Aseishi 浅瀬石山. The Hall had been relocated to Iwaki town 岩木町愛宕山橋雲寺
Aomori-ken, Hirosaki-shi, Atago, Yamashita.

There was also a statue of Fugen Bosatsu 普賢菩薩 and many people born in the year of the dragon or snake (tatsu 辰 mi 巳 ) came here to pray to these deities.

In 1971 the main hall burned down and the statues and picture scrolls were lost.
In the next year the hall was rebuilt.

The famous Bon dance (Kuroishi yosare 黒石よされ) has been performed in the grounds of this temple since the Edo period.

- Chant of the temple
願う身の　たどりつきたる　地蔵院　かたき信心で　祈りささげん
