It is said that this place has been a center of worship since the 8th century. Narayan Pal, the 6th emperor of Pala Empire initiated the regular worship of the Shivlingam in the 8th century. In the 12th century, a temple was built on this place by King Indradyumna. It is said that the temple was demolished and for many years there were no remains above ground.
On 7 April 1977, two boys named Ashok and Gajanand were discovered the Giant Shivlingam beneath the ground while playing a traditional Gilli-danda game. On 11 February 1993, the Shankaracharya of Jagannathpuri inaugurated the restructure of the temple complex. The current temple complex building started on 15 November 2002 under Shree Indradamneshwar Mahadev Mandir Trust.
