History & Legend This temple is about 71 years old if it is done from the established date. According to the foundation stone of this temple, the temple is built and established by "Mitthu Mistri Thakur". A Legend story is hidden between this temple. According to legend story told by "Mitthu Mistri Thakur" Grandson "J. M. Thakur", One day a sage came to Mitthu Thakur's house. Mitthu Thakur asked the sage, "What do you want, Baba?". The Rishi said, "I am very hungry, give me something to eat". Mitthu Thakur said, "Okay, you sit here and I bring you something to eat". Mitthu Thakur came to the house to arrange food for that Rishi, then it was mango season at that time, so Mitthu Thakur brought "curd", "flattened rice" and "mango" for that Rishi in a plate. When Mitthu Thakur came to get food, the Rishi said to Mitthu Thakur, "Look, you offer water to that "Black Stone" every day, you do one thing, build a Shiva temple at the corner there". Mitthu Thakur said, "Okay! Okay! You should have food first" and started coming to the courtyard. When Mitthu Thakur started coming to the courtyard, he looked back, and the Rishi was not after him. Mitthu Thakur felt, maybe the Rishi would be out. When he went to look outside, the Rishi was not even outside. Mitthu Thakur started thinking, what should be done with this food. Mitthu Thakur thought that he would be Lord Shiva and buried the food with a plate below the ground where the Rishi had said to build the temple. For this reason, Mitthu Mistri Thakur built this Shiva temple and named this temple as "Mitheshwarnath Shiv Temple".
