Morgaon Ganesha Temple, Hindu temple in Morgaon, Maharashtra.

Morgaon Ganesha Temple is a Hindu temple in Morgaon, Maharashtra. Four slender towers mark the corners of the complex, while high walls surround the interior and four gates provide access.

A saint named Morya Gosavi brought the temple to prominence in the 17th century by including it in the Ashtavinayaka pilgrimage circuit. This connection cemented its place among the eight principal Ganesha shrines in the region.

The name Morgaon means 'village of peacocks' in Marathi, from mora (peacock) and gaon (village), and the deity is called Moreshwar, 'Lord of the peacock'. The temple is the foremost centre of the Ganapatya sect, which worships Ganesha as the Supreme Being. A Nandi bull sculpture stands just outside the temple gates; it is said to have been left there when the cart carrying it to a Shiva temple broke a wheel.

Morgaon lies about 65 km from Pune, reached via Hadapsar, Saswad and Jejuri, or by turning off the Pune-Solapur road at Chaufula, 23 km away. The temple stands in the village centre, ringed by a 50-foot protective wall with corner towers. The main entrance faces north, opening onto a quadrangular courtyard with two lamp towers.

A Nandi bull sculpture stands just outside the temple gates. According to local accounts, it was being carried on a cart for a Shiva temple when the cart's wheel broke at this spot, so the image was left here.
