Rudra Mahalaya-

Rudra Mahalaya is located at Siddhpur in the Patan district of Gujarat. Siddhpur is an ancient holy town on the banks of river Saraswati. King Siddharaj Jaisinh built a magnificent Rudra Mahalaya temple in the 12th century AD.

The construction of Rudra Mahalaya was started in 943 AD by Mularaja Solanki and was completed in 1140 AD by Siddharaj Jaisinh. It was dismantled by Allauddin Khilji during 1410-1444 and later Ahmed Shah I demolished and converted some part of it into the conjoint mosque.

To get rid of his bad deeds Mularaja Solanki built Rudra Mahalaya. The construction remained incomplete due to unknown reasons. Siddharaj Jaisinh established the temple complex it became the prime temple complex of Siddhpur.
