北津軽郡板柳町石野宮本７５ / Miyamoto-75 Ishino, Itayanagi-machi, Kitatsugaru-gun

The main statue is Fudo Myo-O.

The origin of this temple is not well documented.
Its first name was probably Hooryuu-in 法隆院 Horyu-In, renamed to 寿円山蓮正院 Rensho-In around 1800.
It was under the protection of temple 大行院 Daigyo-In in Hirosaki.

According to old scriptures, the statue of Fudo Myo-O had been removed from as Fudo-In temple in Noto 能登国石動山不動院 on request of Daimyo Maeda Toshiie 前田利家 with the wish to prevent fire in the region (in 1572).

Another legend tells of a samurai after loosing the battle of Sekigahara in 1600, who took on robes of a yamabushi and came here. He donated a horagai 法螺貝 ritual conch and a long but nameless sword （一尺一寸二分、無銘)


- Chant of the temple
かかる世に　望みをつなぐ　蓮正院　南無や大師の　深きこころに
