Kondo (Main Hall)

“Kondo” is one term for a temple’s primary hall of worship, which typically houses important objects of veneration. Kosanji’s Kondo enshrines Shaka Nyorai (Shakyamuni Buddha), the historical Buddha and founder of Buddhism. After the death of his parents at age eight, Myoe (1173–1232), who went on to found Kosanji, began to regard Shaka Nyorai as a father figure.

The original Kondo was completed in 1219, 13 years after Kosanji was founded. An old map showing the layout of the temple complex indicates that the first Kondo had an elaborate structure and was surrounded by several buildings. It is believed to have housed numerous treasures, including a piece by the master sculptor Unkei (1150–1223). However, the entire structure burned down in a fire in 1547, along with most of the buildings in the temple precinct.

In 1634, a building from Kyoto’s Ninnaji Temple was relocated to Kosanji and renovated, creating the Kondo that we see today. The newer building stands on the same site as the original.

金堂

金堂是針對寺院主要拜殿的一種稱呼，一般會奉祀本尊。高山寺的金堂奉祀佛教的開山祖師釋迦如來，祂亦是歷史上赫赫有名的佛陀。高山寺的開山祖師明惠（1173-1232）在8歲失去父母後，便將釋迦如來視作父親。

最初的金堂建成於1219年，此時距高山寺創建已有13年。透過一幅繪有寺院佈局的古地圖，可見當初的金堂構造精巧，座落於多棟建築物之間。據信當時金堂收藏許多寶物，其中不乏雕刻名匠運慶（1150-1223）的作品。然而1547年高山寺遭逢祝融之災，金堂被焚為灰燼，寺內大半建築亦未能倖免於難。

1634年，京都仁和寺的建築遷至高山寺原金堂的舊址，並改建為今日所能見到的金堂。
