Chintamani Temple, Theur, Hindu temple in Theur, Pune district, India

The Chintamani Temple sits near the meeting point of Bhima River and Mula-Mutha River, featuring traditional Mandir architecture with a central black stone fountain.

The temple underwent substantial construction between the 13th and 17th centuries under Morya Gosavi, later receiving contributions from Maratha Empire ruler Madhavrao I.

The temple celebrates Ganesha Prakatostav and Maghotsav festivals, with devotees gathering to honor the birth and life of the deity Ganesha.

The temple complex, situated 25 kilometers from Pune, contains multiple shrines dedicated to various deities including Shiva and Hanuman alongside the main Ganesha shrine.

According to temple lore, this location marks where Ganesha retrieved the wish-granting jewel Chintamani for sage Kapila, giving the temple its name.
