「澎湖天后宮」建於何時?迄無定論


  「澎湖天后宮」到底建於何時?關於這個問題,到目前為止,專家學者、學術機構等單位,所發表的相關文件資料,尚無確切的定論。

  最早的有遠溯至元朝(西元一二八一年),最遲的說法是清朝康熙二十二年(西元一六八三年),來回就相差四百餘年。但其中較為一般所接受的說法是建於明朝萬曆二十年(西元一五九二年)或萬曆二十五年(西元一五九七年),這個主張是由於明朝萬曆二十年,明朝為了日本幕府豐臣秀吉可能攻打台灣而派兵防守澎湖,因為在當年,台灣雖不是中國的版圖,但澎湖卻早已是中國的版圖。萬曆二十五年也因為日本侵略朝鮮,再度派兵來澎,到了萬曆三十二年(西元一六0四年),荷蘭人在荷將韋麻郎帶領下,第一次入侵澎湖時,澎湖已有娘媽宮為依據,加以向前推測,再根據當時澎湖駐守遊兵、水師的歷史紀錄,穿鑿附會的認為可能由兵員建廟的,但也有一派學者質疑,駐軍和建廟的直接關聯性。

  在以上說法皆有可能,卻都不一定是正確答案的情況下,我們現在可以確定西元一六0四年,荷蘭人第一次入據澎湖要求與中國通商,明朝廷派浯嶼都司沈有容抵澎處理「諭退」事件中,沈有容與韋麻郎即曾於「天妃宮」內相見(見明朝董應舉:崇相集)以及在「澎湖天后宮」整建時由地底下挖出「沈有容諭退紅毛番韋麻郎等」之石碑為佐證,就更加確定「天后宮」在西元一六0四年時已經存在的事實。

  荷蘭人於西元一六二二年第二次入據澎湖時,在自己的日誌及地圖上都記載「澎湖天后宮」的存在,並稱「澎湖天后宮」前面的海域為「教堂灣」。都能顯示由此可見中西歷料都能證明「澎湖天后宮」至少有四百年以上的歷史的事實,所以足堪認定「澎湖天后宮」為全台最古老的寺廟應無疑問。
