Mythological Significance & History

The Bheemakali Temple is believed to be around 800 years old. It was originally the temple of the rulers of the Bushahr dynasty, who considered Goddess Bheemakali as their kuldevi (family deity). The temple’s mythological significance dates back to the legend of Daksha Yagna and Sati’s sacrifice, making it a sacred Shakti Peetha. The present temple structure is thought to have been built after a powerful earthquake in the early 20th century that damaged the older one.
