It is not very famous but it shows a replica of Gondeshwar temple. It seems to be old, but in the course of time, the temple has become very bad, the temple has a Mahadev pind and the top of the temple seems to have been completely destroyed, but if the temple is preserved, surely this temple will be filled with tourists like Gondeshwar!

Mukteshwar Mahadev Temple, Sinnar Sinnar said that historical temples of Yadav period come before our eyes! Gondeshwar and Aishwaryeshwar in the city of Sinnar are famous for the famous Shiva temples of the 10th to 12th centuries built in the land architectural style. Gondeshwar is a perfect Shiva temple built by Shaiv ​​Panchayat system, while Aishwaryeshwar / Ayeswar is a relatively small temple with only sanctum sanctorum and sabhamandap. However, there is another Yadav temple in the same Sinnar city, which is probably not seen by anyone. That is Mukteshwar Mahadev Temple. Mukteshwar Mahadev Temple is located in the northeastern part of Sinnar city and is a small Shiva temple built in Bhumij style. The entrance of the temple is on the east side and in the morning the rays of the sun fall directly on the pindi of Lord Shiva in the sanctum sanctorum. It is as if the coral rays of the sun are being anointed on the pindi of Mahadev! Mukteshwar Mahadev Temple is still standing today. However, with the passage of time and weather, there is a serious effect on the temple. Today, the condition of this historic temple, which is about 1000 years old, is deplorable. Most of the temple is in a dilapidated condition. Most of the roof of the temple has collapsed and the pillar of the sabhamandapa has also fallen a lot. The entrances to the water of the anointing of the deity in the temple, i.e. Makarpranal / Makarmukh, have also disappeared in the course of time. Many remains have been destroyed by falling on the left and front sides of the temple. The sanctum sanctorum of the temple, however, is completely intact from the inside and the body of Lord Shiva and the Nandi in front are beautiful. The sculptures on the remaining pillars and tops of the temple are beautiful. However, oil paint on some of the columns has endangered the rest of the beauty. If we look at the location of Gondeshwar, Aishwaryeshwar and Mukteshwar temples in Sinnar, all these three temples are in a triangular shape. All these three temples stand proudly bearing witness to the glorious history of the Yadav Empire. If you ever visit Sinnar, don't forget to visit these temples, the glorious historical heritage sites of Maharashtra. - Sanket Pagar, 29 September 2021
