Kurdannath Shiva Temple — A Lesser-Known Shiva Site Near Maihar
Kurdannath, also seen with local spelling variants such as Kordara/Kurdannath, is a Shiva temple in the Maihar-Uchehra side. It has much less web coverage than major tourist attractions even though it is locally known. This page connects its local identity with the practical reason to visit and the nearby heritage circuit.

Story, History and Identity
Local Shiva traditions associated with the site should be recorded in a separate “local tradition” section after field verification. Available web material supports its local importance, but claims about great antiquity or a specific mythological event should not be presented without reliable evidence. This editorial discipline is important for trust.
Note: legends and religious beliefs are labelled as tradition; documented history and changing travel information are verified separately.
