For about 200 years from the Kamakura period to the Muromachi period ,
about 700 yers ago , there was a castle owner's mansion , samurai residence
, and Koeji Temple at the foot of Mt.Jyogane. At dusk , the bell of Koeji
Temple rang far away , and the right of the full moon would have shined
on the surface of Koeji Pond.
However , the abolition of Buddha of the Naegi Domain in the early Meiji
era almost completely eliminated the valuable literature and cultural heritage
related to the Koeji Castle that should have remained in and around the
Koegi site and in Uenaegi.
