This small temple, situated immediately to the south-west of Visvanatha temple. This temple is heavilyrestored originally it was comprising a sanctum and a porch. The porch is completely lost and of the sanctum, only the plinth has survived. The doorway belongs to a Vaishnava shrine. This is indicated by a Vishnu figure on the middle of the lintel. The image in the sanctum represents Gauri with the godha or iguana as her vehicle. Near Parvati Temple, facing the main road is a relatively new temple built by the maharaja of Chhattarpur. The image at present worshipped in the shrine is one of Lakshmi and the name ‘ Parvati temple’, by which it is now known to the villagers, is in any case a misnomer.
