History & significance
A Vaishnava brick temple in Pabna town built by Brajmohan Krori, a tahsildar under the Nawabs of Murshidabad, in the jor-bangla form of two joined do-chala roofs. Its terracotta panels illustrate Ramayana and Mahabharata scenes; the image was moved to a nearby Kali temple in 1910 and worship has ceased.
