The Pataleshwar Cave Temple is a rock-cut cave temple, carved out around 8th century in the Rashtrakuta period.
It has been declared as a protected monument by the government.
The temple, made of basalt rock, is dedicated to the Hindu god Shiva.
The sanctum - a cube-shaped room about 3–4 metres on each side - houses a linga - the symbol of Shiva and there are two smaller cells on each side.
