The Nrusimhanath Temple in Odisha is a significant historical and religious site dedicated to Lord Nrusimha. This study examines its architectural features, highlighting a fusion of Kalinga and tribal influences. The main temple boasts a raised platform, a curvilinear tower (Vimäna), and a frontal porch (Jagamohana) showcasing intricate carvings. The sanctum houses a black chlorite image of Lord Nrusimha as Mrjara Keshari with a lion's body and a cat's head. The Vimäna consists of sections like bäda, gandi, and mastaka, adorned with distinct moldings and ornamental designs. The temple's doorway features carved images of Jaya, Vijayä, and Gajalaxmi. So, the temple has all the features of the Kalingan oder of temple. But it seems to be renovated during the 15th century CE by the Chauhan dynasty. The Nrusimhanath Temple embodies the rich architectural heritage of Odisha, combining artistic beauty and cultural influences.
