Dehu Temple - Place of Worship

The place of birth of the poet saint Tukaram, Dehu is an ancient city situated at the banks of the River Indravati. Tukaram is one of the most inspiring poets of ancient Maharashtra and is known for his exemplary work- Abhang Gatha’.
One of the most prominent places is the Dehu temple constructed in the 18th century by the poet’s youngest son. It is dedicated to Lord Pandurang. Other attractions here include the rock formation that came into being by a standing fast undertaken by Tukarama and a well landscaped garden dedicated in his wife’s memory.
