Vigneshwara Temple, Ozar, Hindu temple in Ozar, Maharashtra, India

The temple features a main hall extending 20 feet in length, leading to a sanctum measuring 10 by 10 feet with intricate stone carvings.

Chimaji Appa, brother of Peshwa Bajirao, constructed the temple and added a golden spire after conquering the Portuguese fort of Vasai in 1785.

During Ganesh Chaturthi, thousands of devotees gather at the temple for a four-day celebration filled with rituals and ceremonies.

The temple stands near the banks of the Kukadi River, approximately 8 kilometers from Narayangaon, with regular bus connections from Pune.

This temple forms part of the Ashtavinayak circuit and houses the Vighnaharta form of Ganesha, known for removing obstacles from devotees' paths.
