During the Sengoku period of the 16th century, the town of Kohama developed into a typical temple town (寺内町 jinai-machi) around Gōshō-ji. However, the town and the temple were burned down by General Fukushima Masanori (福島正則) in 1595, by order of Toyotomi Hideyoshi, because it was the hometown of one of the wives of Toyotomi Hidetsugu, called either Kohama-hime (小浜姫) or Kame-hime (亀姫). Hideyoshi had already killed both Hidetsugu and his Kame-hime.
