  Dopiansa Temple was founded by Doseon (a Korean Buddhist Monk) in 865, in the 5th year of the 48th King Gyeongmun of the Unified Silla Dynasty. Legend has says that he commissioned the cast iron statue of Vairocana Buddha with the intention of enshrining it in Anyangsa Temple, Cheorwon. But, the statue disappeared on its way, only to be found at an unknown site in Hwagaesan Mountain.

  Doseon decided to respect the Buddha’s choice, built Dopiansa Temple at the site, and enshrined the statue in it. The temple was named Dopiansa to indicate that the iron-made Buddha statue had reached “pian,” meaning an eternal place to rest. In addition to the legendary iron Vairocana Buddha statue (National Treasure No. 63) made by Monk Doseon, the temple houses a 4.1 meter-tall three-story granite pagoda (Treasure No. 223).

  After liberation, it was under communism and was completely destroyed during the Korean War in 1950, 25th June.
