Brahmpur is a large village and corresponding community development block in Buxar district of Bihar.

People visit Brahmapur to perform religious rituals in the temple of Shiva.

In Medieval India, an Islamic invader from Afghanistan Ghaznavi came to destroy the temple and loot its wealth.

The people of the village warned him that if he performed these violent acts, Shiva’s third eye would burn him to ashes.

Brahmapur is situated at 25°35'57"N 84°18'5"E[5] It is surrounded by many small villages such as Raghunathpur, Purwan, Nimej, Balua, Umedpur, Ramgarh, Garahtha, Gayghat.

Brahmeshwar Nath High School provides education from grades six to twelfth and one girls college.

The Falguni cattle fair is very famous in Bihar and Uttar Pradesh, and takes place in the Hindu month of Falgun.

Recently, inhabitants have begun to leave Brahmapur in the same manner as the rest of rural Bihar, in an effort to find better work opportunities elsewhere.
