Kamefukuzan Kōtokuji Temple was originally a Tendai sect temple located about one ri (approximately 4 kilometers) south of the current site in Noda. In the first year of the Eikyō era (1429) during the Muromachi period, the third generation Zen master, Kūen, from the Taikyuji Temple in Daisen Town, relocated it to the current site at Kumon Kamegaya and converted it to the Sōtō sect. At that time, the guardian of Izumo, Amago Mochihisa, devoted himself to Kūen and donated the main hall and the kitchen in the fifth year of Eikyō (1433), establishing it as a temple for the Amago clan's prayers. Subsequently, Mochihisa's son, Kiyosada, donated the founding hall, bell tower, and the temple gate in the third year of Kakitsu (1443).
