History
This temple was originally established as Qīxiá Vihāra 棲霞精舍 in Yǒngmíng 永明 7 of the Southern Qí 齊 (489 C.E.). Emperor Gāozǔ 高祖 (r. 650-684) changed its name to Gōngdé sì 功德寺. This temple went by a number of other names during the Táng 唐 and Sòng 宋, but its current name was officially established in 1007 (Jǐngdé 景德 4).
Qīxiá Temple was destroyed during the Xiánfēng 咸豐 Era (1851 - 1862) by Tàipíng rebels, and it was not rebuilt until the very end of the Qīng 清 (1908/Guāngxù 光緒 34). This was only a partial reconstruction, however, and it was not returned to its former glory until the Republican period. This success of this later renovation was due in large part to the efforts of Zōngyǎng 宗仰, who arrived in 1919 in order to become the temple's first official abbot in over fifty years. Zōngyǎng brought with him a Línjì 臨濟 lineage from Jīnshān 金山.
During the Nanjing Massacre in 1937, over twenty-thousand people were evacuated to Qīxiá Temple.
