Located in the heart of Jammu city, the Raghunath Temple is a large complex of shrines dedicated primarily to Lord Ram (Raghunath). Its tall shikharas, gold-plated interiors, and multiple sanctums filled with idols and scriptures make it the spiritual centre of the “City of Temples”. The surrounding bazaar sells religious items, prasad, books and souvenirs.
About this place
History & highlights
The complex was started in the early 19th century by Maharaja Gulab Singh, founder of the Dogra dynasty, and completed by his son Ranbir Singh. It symbolised Dogra devotion to Ram and their desire to make Jammu a major Hindu pilgrimage centre. Despite damage during past conflicts, the temple has been restored and remains a key religious and cultural landmark of the Jammu plains.
