History & significance

A late-medieval brick sikhara temple about 18 m high near Gourangapur, now an ASI monument of national importance. Its windowless sanctum holds no image and traces of plaster survive on the outer walls; scholars date it to the sixteenth or seventeenth century, well after the chieftain whose name it carries.

Sthala katha — the legend

Tradition says the local chieftain Ichai Ghosh raised the temple in honour of the goddess Bhagabati.
