Sri Siddalingeshwara Swamy Shrine, is a very famous Lingayat pilgrimage centre situated in Yedeyuru Village, Kunigal Town of Karnataka State in India. This temple comes under the HRE & CE department, governed by the government of Karnataka.
The Siddlingeshwara temple faces north and is a fairly large Dravidian structure. An inscription near the Mahadwara talks about the spiritual greatness of the teacher while scenes from the life of Siddhalingha as also the various leelas of lord Shiva are depicted on the colorful print on the Gopura.
There is small shrine of Veerabhadra Swamy in the basement as he vacated the main sanctum so as to ensure supreme importance to Sri siddalingeshwara and his writings. Veerabhadra is held in equal reverence and offered worship similar to Sri Siddalingeshwara. A series of devotees figures speak of the pivotal role of Sri siddalingeshwara temple in fulfilling the vows and prayers of the people.
