Honinbo


 

The Hon'inbō (本因坊) school was one of four major schools of Go in Japan. Established in 1612, the Honinbo school survived until 1940. Upon the closure of the school, the title Honinbo came to be used for the champion of the Honinbo Tournament, which is now an annual event in honour of the school.
