Khargeswar Temple

This is one of the oldest temple..... from which derives the name of the Kharagpur.

Nice place. Historical place related to Mahabharata era

This sacred Hindu temple of Lord Shiv is at Inda, Kharagpur and nearly 2 km from Kharagpur Railway Station of Howrah - Kharagpur rail route.

This east facing laterite built temple is sapta-ratha shikhara style with attached low pyramidal Pirha style Jogmohan . The roof of main temple is smooth curvilinear . The roof of the main temple was renovated unscientifically but the originality of Jogmohan is maintained more or less.

This temple was built probably in seventeenth century.

In the public opinion the name of Kharagpur town of West Medenipore was derived from Lord Khargeswar ( Lord Shiv).

Religious people come here everyday for offering puja and darshana. Huge number of devotees come in Bangla Charak sankranti, Shiv- rattri and every Monday in Bangla Sraban month

Lovely place,
It's look like a kedarnath temple.
Har har mahadev shiv sambhu

Peaceful environment. The city Kharagpur is named from this temple. The temple should have more fame because there is a history behind it. It is often heard that the pandab came to this place in Mahabharat era and Bheem married his wife here. Also the main temple is minimum 400 years old. Recommend to visit..

sacred temple of Lord Shiv in a narrow lane. Soothing environment with pleasant breeze around. A small gym is the nearby region as well. The place gives a perfect taste of all cultures with the blessings of Lord Shiv.

The only good thing about the temple is Shivling...otherwise no maintenance...the temple premises is very dirty..local boys sit there for adda baazi n smoking...No maintenance... At last Lord shiva blesses us all

The peaceful ambience can truly be experienced
