Annapurna Temple was built on 12 April 1875, by Jagadamba Devi, youngest daughter of Rani Rashmoni. She was married to Mathur Mohan Biswas, who after the death of his first wife Karunamoyee, married Jagadamba Devi. Their son Dwarikanath Biswas made all the arrangements for the establishment of this temple.[5] The temple was opened to devotees by Ramakrishna.[6] Inside the temple complex there is a Natmandir, six Shiva temples and two Nahabatkhanas.[1]
