Jagadishwar Temple

Location

Sivaji was an ardent follower of the Hindu religion. Jagadishwar temple built in his royal palace is a clear proof of his devotion. History says that Sivaji used to visit this temple daily.

The dome at the top of the temple is the reflection of the mughal architecture of that time. The main deity is a Jagadeeswara idol, which inspires the devotee for its uniqueness. The temple holds an idol of Nandi outside, facing the entrance of the temple.

Once adorned the status of the favourite shrine of the sovereign, Jagadishwara temple is now in a decrepit state.

Other interesting attractions near to the temple are the Samadhi of the great warrior and his loyal dog.
