法泉寺, Buddhist temple in Takamatsu, Japan.

Hokusenshoji is a Buddhist temple in Takamatsu with a main hall for worship, supporting structures for teaching, and traditional gates that define sacred areas. The buildings are arranged to guide visitors through different zones, from the outer approaches to the central worship space.

Founded in 1588 in Utazu by Ikoma Chikamasa, lord of Sanuki, with Ōkawa Shōgi as founding abbot, it was first named Kaizōji. In 1598, by order of the third Ikoma lord Masatoshi, it moved to Sanbanchō in Takamatsu and was renamed Hōsenji after his posthumous name. From 1881 to 1899 it housed the Kagawa-Yamada District Office. In 1945 the temple was destroyed in the Takamatsu air raid, except for the Ikoma mausoleum, bell and Shaka statue; it moved about 70 m east in 1949.

The temple is the family temple of the Ikoma clan, lords of Sanuki, and holds the Ikoma Mausoleum with the graves of the second lord Kazumasa and the third lord Masatoshi. The bronze bell, a prefectural cultural property, was used by the Ikoma family as a camp bell during the Bunroku campaign and later donated to the temple; its inscription records that it was cast in 1330 for a shrine in Bizen Province. The temple is also known as "Hokusenshoji no Oshakasama" for its Shaka statue.

The temple stands at 1-3-19 Bancho, Takamatsu, about 70 m east of its pre-war site; the grounds were reduced when new roads (Kencho-mae-dori and Bijutsukan-dori) were driven through the old precinct in the post-war reconstruction. The Inokuma mausoleum and the Shaka statue were moved here with the temple in 1949. The former tram stop Hosenji-mae, opened in 1917 on the temple's front road, no longer exists.

The temple bell, a prefectural cultural property, was cast in 1330 for Kubo Hachimangu in Bizen Province; the Ikoma family used it as a war drum in the Bunroku campaign before donating it here. The Shaka statue survived the 1945 Takamatsu air raid unscathed and was long visible from any street in the low-rise city.
