The Dandeshwar group of fifteen temples are 9th to 10th century Hindu temples about two kilometers from the much larger Jageshwar Dham. The Dandeshwar complex was likely larger and included structures such as mandapas, but these are not lost and their architectural fragments and sculptures are preserved at this site.

The Dandeshwar site is dedicated to Shiva. The temples are relatively simple, with most temples in modest phamsana-style. The main temple is a Himalayan variant of the Nagara-style with a square plan.
