A Legacy of Heritage
Mangrul Chawala is a historically rooted village in the Nandgaon Khandeshwar Taluka of Amravati district, Maharashtra. The region draws its historical significance from the ancient Khandeshwar Temple, constructed in 1255 CE during the Yadava dynasty under the reign of Ramachandra Yadava. The village has evolved over centuries — from its time under the Yadavas, through the Maratha and British periods, to its present identity as a thriving farming community in the heart of Vidarbha.
The nearby Khandeshwar Temple — built under the legendary Hemadri Pandit in the Hemadpanthi style using interlocking black basalt stones without mortar — stands as a proud symbol of the region's medieval engineering excellence. This magnificent Shiva temple has endured for nearly 770 years and remains an active pilgrimage and cultural landmark near Mangrul Chawala, drawing devotees from across the Vidarbha region.
