Devi Temple
Temple History: The Devi Temple is one of the most revered religious sites in Panipat, dedicated to Goddess Durga. It is believed that the original idol was found by the Maratha warrior Sadashivrao Bhau before the Third Battle of Panipat in 1761. Legend says that when the Marathas tried to move the idol, it miraculously returned to its original spot, leading to the construction of the temple at its current location. The temple has served as a source of spiritual strength for the people of Panipat for over 250 years. It is situated on the banks of a large ancient tank, which has now been partially converted into a lush green park. The temple complex is a hub of cultural activity, especially during the festival of Navratri, drawing thousands of devotees from across the state.
