Midnapore Attractions - Tourist Places To Visit In Midnapore

The Kurumbera Fort houses a temple of Shiva which was built in the 1400s right beside a mosque which was built by Mohammed Taheer which makes it an epitome of Hindu-Muslim unity and is visited by tourists from all over the country.

The high walls encompassing the fort make for a view of grandeur seldom seen in the region. If in the vicinity, one must try to plan an evening at this fort, watch the sunset and take in the ambience.  

Aatchala architecture and Terracotta style design is the first impression one has of this age old temple visited by tourists all through the year.

The dominant deity worshipped here is Surya, the Hindu Sun God, the idol having been carved in black stone, and this temple is believe to have been built in the 10th or 11th century.
