Jalagandeeswarar

Jalagandeeswarar Temple
The Temple inside the fort, is dedicated to Lord Siva named as Jalagandeeswarar and is noted for its sculptures, which speak volumes of the exquisite craftsmanship of the highly skilled artisans of that period.   The sculptures in the Porch on the left of the entrance are connoisseurs.  It has a big marriage hall adorned with elegant engravings and monolithic sculptures. The Temple was used for long as an arsenal and remained without deity.  A few years back it has been sanctified with a deity Lord Siva which is worshipped by pilgrims and tourists.
