This temple is one of the popular among the Ashtavinayaka temples and 27.04 km from Pune district in Maharashtra.

Theur is prescribed to the fifth temple to be visited in the Ashtavinayak Darshan tour or yatra, people often visit Theur second in the place after Morgaon, as it is a more convenient route. The idol of the deity is self-emanated (swayambhu murti) and is east facing called purvabhimukha, with his trunk turned left and beautiful diamonds studded in his eyes. The idol is in a cross-legged seated position. Theur itself is an important mythological place located at the confluence of three major regional rivers i.e. Bhima, Mula and Mutha. Lord Ganesha as Chintamani Ganesha is God who brings peace of mind and drives away all perplexities of the mind.

The significance of Chintamani Ganpati Mandir is that Lord Chintamani is the god who brings peace mind. The idol of Lord Chintamani Ganesha faces east. The Lord Ganesha eyes are precious gems. The Mahadwar or the main gate of the temple is north-facing, and a road connects it to river Mula and Muth.

Spend 1-2 hours for Ganesha darshan and temple views. On weekends the rush will be more. During Ganesh Chaturthi, Ganesh Jayati and other Ganesh festivals you will spend 4-5 hours for Chintamani Ganpati darshan. At Sunday, they also serve lunch after 12 PM, at a very minimal rate of Rs 15.I highly recommend going for that lunch.

History of Chintamani Ganpati Temple Theur

The current temple was built by the 'Ganapatya saint Morya Gosavi' or his 'descendant Dharmadhar' (Dharanidhar). Morya Gosavi often visited the temple on his trips between his hometown Chinchwad and Morgaon, the foremost of the Ashtavinayaka temples. On every fourth lunar day after the full moon, Morya used to visit the Theur temple. Now, the temple is under the administration of the 'Chinchwad Devasthan Trust', which also governs Morgaon and Siddhatek Ashtavinayak temples.

The temple has a wooden Sabha-mandapa, which was built by Madhavraoji. The hall also has a black stone water fountain in it. Besides the central shrine dedicated to Lord Ganesha/Ganpati, there are a number of smaller shrines in the temple complex: Mahadeva (Lord Shiva) temple, Lord Vishnu-Lakshmi temple, Lord Hanumanji temple etc. Behind the temple is the Peshwa Wada – the Peshwa Palace.
