It is believed that this is an ancient temple more than 5000 years old. As per the legend, God Brahma laid the first lingam of God Shiva here and hence, he was first worshiped in this temple only. It is also believed that Pandavas along with Krishna prayed to Lord Shiva at this temple for his blessings for victory in the battle of Mahabharata.

An unexpectedly crowd free and easily accessible Shaktipeeth in Kurukshetra where one can pray in peace. This is supposed to be the place where the Devi's right ankle fell - the silver replica of the same is the primary deity. The compound also has a small temple dedicated to the ill-fated chakravyuh in Mahabharata.

If one goes by the legends this spot was right in the middle of the great battlefield of the great war between the cousins Pandavas and Kauravs in which almost all kingdoms of ancient India north of the vindhiya mountain participated. It is the spot where the patriarch of the kuru clan Bhishma was felled by Arjun's arrows. The tank in the compound is apparently the ban ganga or the water drawn from the ground by Arjun's arrow to quench Bhishma's thirst as he lay on his bed of arrows in the middle of the battlefield. The premises have been cleaned up though the water could have been cleaned. The ambience was quite peaceful in the afternoon. There are a group of smaller temples with a huge Hanuman idol at the entrance. Surprisingly there was a board (even if in dilapidated condition) giving information on the importance of the place. Hope the authorities take note of giving more information on heritage sites.
