Description

This monuments dates from Pratihara period. The walls are plain except for central niche where pierced windows are placed. Carved panels, doorways and window work dating from Gupta era are inserted into the walls; these may be fragments of dismantled Parvati temple. The curved tower and its decoration of arch-like motifs are typical feature of later work. It houses an 8th century four-faced Shiva-linga carved with remarkable vitality, especially the fierce open-mouthed face of the god on its south side.
