Once the second capital of the Kelladi Nayakas, Ikkeri’s Aghoreshwara Temple is all that remains of the kingdom here.  A beautifully proportioned stone structure, the temple displays an interesting combination of Hoysala & Vijayanagara architecture. The original image of Aghoreshwara with 32 hands has been lost and a ‘linga’ has been installed for worship. The complex also has an artistic Nandi and a Parvathi shrine with fine relief sculptures.
