明代(dai)初期，附近八個村(cun)(cun)莊村(cun)(cun)民集資始建真武(wu)廟(miao)（玄武(wu)廟(miao)），廟(miao)舍(she)(she)九間(jian)，并將雞爪山(shan)改名為(wei)金(jin)寶山(shan)。清光緒(xu)年(nian)間(jian)，八村(cun)(cun)擴(kuo)建真武(wu)廟(miao)，規模擴(kuo)大(da)，建筑宏偉。廟(miao)舍(she)(she)分前(qian)(qian)后(hou)兩(liang)(liang)院，兩(liang)(liang)院各(ge)有一(yi)座(zuo)大(da)殿，兩(liang)(liang)大(da)殿抱廈(sha)禪(chan)門，雕龍刻鳳，飛檐彩(cai)壁，瑰麗多姿，非常壯觀，后(hou)又增建六(liu)間(jian)高(gao)樓(lou)，廊坊兩(liang)(liang)廂，前(qian)(qian)后(hou)廟(miao)舍(she)(she)共計24間(jian)，占地30余(yu)畝。院內古(gu)木參天，有古(gu)碑四座(zuo)，大(da)鐘一(yi)口，水井一(yi)眼。常住和尚十數人，較聞名者如元(yuan)修、元(yuan)墩、元(yuan)尊(zun)、元(yuan)貴等。
清末(mo)民(min)國初年，水(shui)患(huan)頻繁(fan)，戰亂不斷，真(zhen)武(wu)廟年久失修，逐漸殘破，至一九(jiu)(jiu)四八(ba)年，已成為一片(pian)廢墟，瓦礫遍地，雜草(cao)叢生。一九(jiu)(jiu)九(jiu)(jiu)二年春，附近村民(min)，參照清代真(zhen)武(wu)廟建設規模和圖(tu)樣，計劃(hua)重(zhong)建真(zhen)武(wu)廟。
二00四年冬熱心群眾在軍集村東小橋下發掘出土了《重修玄帝大殿挽廈禪堂碑》，該碑立與清嘉慶二十三年，碑文中記載“惟濮為帝丘舊地，堯陵舜廟唐虞故跡猶存，其以山名者，歷山吉山外有金寶山。”此外碑文還詳細記載了金寶山附近的文物勝跡：“金寶山西望谷林陶唐氏之陵隱隱可見，南望歷山，有虞氏廟在焉，北望吉山，傳為許由之居處”。
