History & Religious Importance
The Jejuri Temple, dedicated to Lord Khandoba, a manifestation of Lord Shiva, has a rich history dating back centuries. Legend has it that Khandoba fought a demon named Malla at this very site, making the temple a sacred place of victory.
The temple's unique architecture, carvings, and annual Bhandara festival, where turmeric is showered as a symbol of blessings, make it a significant cultural and religious destination.
