Japanese: 小一条第は藤原内麻呂が息子の冬嗣に買い与えた邸宅であるが、その理由は、冬嗣がまだ内舎人であった頃、参内の途中で虚空から宗像大神が呼びかけ、父に頼んで小一条第を買ってもらい、そこに居住して傍らに宗像大神を祀れば、子々孫々にわたって守護しようとの神託があったためである。
English: And it is said that the Amanoiwatowake no kami was also enshrined in the northeast corner of the mansion but the history of it is unknown.

Japanese: 『花山院家記』には良房の猶子藤原基経が守護神として祀ったものと記すが、上掲『土右記』には師成の話の続きとして、「昭宣公（基経）の身分がまだ低かった時分、数人の童に捕まり杖で打たれている狐を見かけたので、それを乞い受けて解放すると、夢中にその狐が現れて、住む場所を賜れば火難などの災害を除く力になると誓ったので、現鎮座地をあてがって宗像神の眷属とした」と載せている。

English: As stated previously, the Nanban-ji Temple building itself no longer exists, but contemporary Japanese paintings (Nanban-ji folding screens etc.), written works (mainly the records of missionaries) and archaeological investigations of ruins thought to be those of churches have led to the following speculations as to the church's architectural characteristics.
Japanese: 前節で述べたように、南蛮寺の建物自体は一切現存しておらず、その建築上の特徴は、同時代の日本人によって描かれた絵画資料（南蛮屏風等）、文字資料（主に宣教師の記録）、および教会跡と推定される遺跡の考古学的調査の結果から、以下のように推測される。
English: As can be seen at Daido-ji Temple, whether existing Buddhist temples were converted to churches or new structures constructed, Japanese carpenters were used and Japanese architectural styles (in particular Buddhist temple styles) were emulated.
Japanese: 大道寺に見られるように既存の仏教寺院の建物を転用するか、新たに建てた場合も、日本人の大工を用い、日本の建築様式（とくに仏教寺院のそれ）を踏襲して建てられた。

Japanese: 礼拝堂の入り口から祭壇に至る動線は、西方教会建築のパターンを踏襲して、間口に対して奥行きが深い形が追求された。
English: As a result, a comparison of an irimoya-zukuri style chapel to a Buddhist temple main hall of the same style would show that the line from the position of the entrance to the altar (the principal image in the case of a Buddhist main hall) is rotated by 90 degrees.
Japanese: その結果、例えば入母屋造の礼拝堂を同様式の仏教寺院の本堂と比べると、入り口の位置と祭壇（本堂でいえば本尊）までの動線が90度回転した様相を呈している。
English: In addition to the use of crucifix designs on roof tiles that has been determined from excavated artifacts, it is thought that Christian motifs were incorporated into the engravings and decoration on pillars, beams, gables and transoms, as well as sliding panel paintings and roof paintings.

English: The construction of the church directed by Gnecchi-Soldo Organtino was carried out thanks to the cooperation and donations of influential Christians from the Kinki region such as Tomoteru TAKAYAMA (baptismal name 'Dario'), with the sum of donations and Society of Jesus expenditures totaling approximately 3,000 cruzados.
