This temple was dedicated to Shiva.

According to the Inscriptional plaque, the temple was founded in 1622 by King Bir Singha of Mallabhum.

[3][1] The structure's layout is square-shaped, with each side being 6.9 meters wide and 10.7 meters tall.

Originally, the temple had a curved tower (rekha sikhara), but this was later replaced by an "octagonal" tower.

[4] There are three other temples of the same style, called Krishna-Balarama, Kesara-Raya, and Nikunjabihar temples, but they are now in ruins.
