The pagoda (National Treasure number 2) was built in 1467 and repaired in 1947 after being damaged during the 17th-century Japanese invasion. The damage was relatively light, with only the top three stories of the pagoda being knocked to the ground. It was not repaired for hundreds of years because it was believed that "great misfortunes would befall the country if the top was replaced."
