Seikei-in is located to the south across Daimon-dori from the middle gate of Danjo Garan temple complex.
It belonged to the Gyonin-kata group in Edo period.
It was founded by Gyoi-Rishi, who is said to have received the imperial seal of Seikein in 1200 after presenting the temple to Emperor Tsuchimikado.
Its members included the Ouchi clan of Suo and the Takeda clan of Kai (Yamanashi Pref.).
It was originally located to the north of Saimon-in on the south side of Odawara Valley, but moved to Saiin Valley in 1894, and then to its current location in 1911.
The current group of buildings dates from the late Meiji period onwards.
