Lachhuar Jain temple, Jain temple in Lachhuar, Bihar, India

Lachhuar Jain temple is a religious complex featuring two main structures alongside a rest house with 65 rooms for overnight visitors. The compound sits in a hilly landscape and provides lodging for pilgrims who wish to stay for extended periods.

The temple was founded in 1857 by Raja Dhanpat Singh Bahadur to accommodate pilgrims visiting sacred sites in the region. Its construction reflected the religious importance of this area for Jain followers.

The temple serves as a spiritual center where Jain devotees gather for worship and religious observances throughout the year. Pilgrims visit to connect with their faith before journeying to the nearby sacred site.

The temple is located in Jamui district and is best accessed via local paths and walking routes, particularly when undertaking treks in the area. Visitors should prepare for hilly terrain and bring sturdy footwear and sufficient water.

The complex serves as the gateway to Kshatriyakund, revered by Svetambara Jains as the birthplace of Lord Mahavira. This connection makes the temple an essential stop for those traveling to this sacred mountain.
