Lohagarh Math (Bengali: লোহাগড় মঠ) is a historic temple located in Lohagarh village, Faridganj Upazila, Chandpur District, Bangladesh. The temple is situated near the Dakatia River.[1]

Etymology

The name "Lohagarh" comes from the names of two influential brothers, Louh and Gororh, who were prominent figures in the region.[2]

History

The temple was part of the Lohagarh zamindars’ estate, where judicial and administrative activities were conducted. Local accounts mention that the zamindars were authoritarian rulers, and even British officials noted the influence they wielded over the local population.[3]

Current status

Today, the site remains a symbol of the historical significance of the region. It continues to attract visitors and researchers interested in the legacy of the historical zamindar family.[4][5]
