Originally, the ceramic statue of the Buddha was placed in Nagoya Castle, and after the war, it was dedicated to Fukusenji Temple. Mitsutomo Tokugawa, a former lord of Nagoya Castle, is said to have created the statue in honor of his deceased mother. It is thought that a complete statue was created in Nagoya, including the parts from the neck down, so now where has the body gone?
