The Parshvanatha temple is a Jain temple from the 10th century. The temple is thought to have been built between 950 and 970 CE, during the reign of Chandela king Dhanga, by a prominent Jain family. Although it was most likely built as an Adinatha shrine during the Chandela period, it is now dedicated to Parshvanatha.
