[1] Archaeological finds establishes that the town had an ancient history as the centre of Hindu and Jain religious faiths.

[3] Arang has many Jain and Hindu temples that date backs to the 9th to 11th centuries.

In the past, a mandapa (an outdoor pavilion) and a porch probably existed as part of the temple.

The damaged front fascia of the temple tower has been plastered without any decoration and also whitewashed.

[7] The north-east and south-east faces of the temple tower, which were also dilapidated, have been redone in brick and mortar, but crudely.

A large number of images are carved on the exterior and interior faces of the temple.

At the base of the larger images is a row of a highly decorated depiction of inscription panels, flowers, and a royal march of horses, animals, and people.

[9] The temple has three free-standing large images of Jain tirthankaras deified in the garbha griha or sanctum sanctorum.
