In the year 1371, the lord of the castle 茂呂勘解由左衛門尉 Muro Kankaiyoshi Saemonnojo hat the temple 香華院 Kogei-In erected in the castle compound.
A statue of Fudo Myo-O carved by Kobo Daishi was enshrined.
From the temple 鶏足寺 Keisoku-Ji the Zen priest 道照禅師 Dosho Zenji was called to lead the rituals.
Later the temple was named Taima-Ji.

When 石田三成 Ishida Mitsunari passed 伊勢崎 Isesaki, there was a bridge (now 光円橋 Koenbashi), where a monster passed by every night and shocked the villagers. Mitsunari drove the monster away and the name of the temple was changed.
The crest of the temple is the same as that of Mitsunari.

In the year 1663, many buildings were lost during a fire, but reconstructed in 1670.
The large Fudo Hall was build in 1677.
The main statue is 大日如来 Dainichi Nyorai.
子安観音 Koyasu Kannon is also venerated.

The roof of the Fudo Hall was repaired in 1988.

The main gate of the temple has 扁額 a framed inscription, 「不動院」 Fudo-In.
