- quote
This is one of the Kokubunji Temples constructed nationwide under the orders of Emperor Shomu 聖武天皇.
Wood tabs related to census registration were discovered around this site, suggesting that there were related facilities for Chikuzen-koku Province, such as a provincial office nearby.
The surrounding landscape still retains some remnants of that era.
In the year 741, Emperor Shomu announced that he would build Kokubun-ji Temples for monks and
Kokubun-niji Temples for nuns all over Japan and place Buddhist scriptures in Shichiju-no-to (Seven-Story pagoda).
Thus Chikuzen Kokubun-ji Temple was the earliest built temple in Kyushu, completed inthe year 756.
Investigations of ruins of halls and towers have been done and partially maintained.
