鎌倉彫の天井 ｰ 満福寺
満福寺
When Minamoto no Yoshitsune came back to Kamakura after defeating the Heike, he couldn’t enter Kamakura, because he was touched by anger in his brother Yoritomo. Yoshitsune stayed Manpuku-ji at Koshigoe. It is famous for the place where Yoshitsune wrote a petition called Koshigoe-joe here.
A draft of Koshigoe-jo that Benkei wrote is on display in the main hall. However, whether really he wrote a petition is doubtful.
More importantly, many Kamakura-bori (Kamakura carvings) are on display in the Hon-do (main hall) and Kori.
