Originally built in 1502 by Oda Nobuyuki in memory of his father, Oda Nobuhide, it was moved to its current location in 1714. The temple grounds have a turtle pond and a grove of giant bamboo. A 10-meter tall Buddha statue known as "The Great Buddha of Nagoya" was erected in 1987.{{cite web|url=http://www.ncvb.or.jp/en/contents/sightseeing/view/index.php?m_seeid=ilnowXZ2|title=Toganji|publisher=Nagoya Convention and Visitors Bureau|url-status=dead|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20110720180315/http://www.ncvb.or.jp/en/contents/sightseeing/view/index.php?m_seeid=ilnowXZ2|archivedate=2011-07-20}}{{cite web|url=http://kikuko.web.infoseek.co.jp/english/togan-ji.html|title=Togan-ji|publisher=Kikuko's web site Nagoya}}{{cite web|url=http://www.nic-nagoya.or.jp/en/mailmagazine/issues/2009/december_2009.htm|title=Nagoya Calendar Mail Magazine|publisher=Nagoya International Center|date=December 2009}}
