あかずの観音 "Kannon behind a door that is not opened"
Located at Akarusan 閼伽流山 Mount Akaru.

The Kannon Statue used to be at 親沢 Oyazawa.
If the door of the hall was left open, the Kannon got out and walked to the swamp.
Therefore the door is never opened and the statue is called "Kannon behind a door that is not opened".
