Hatimura Temple
Silghat, Assam · Goddess Mahishamardini (Durga) · Shakti Temple
Ahom-era Shaktipith on a Brahmaputra hillock near Jakhalabandha, Nagaon district.
Hatimura Temple rises on a hillock above the Brahmaputra near Silghat in Nagaon district, listed by the Government of Assam as a Shaktipith dedicated to Goddess Mahishamardini, built in 1745 CE under Ahom king Pramatta Singha and reached via Jakhalabandha, about 60 km from Nagaon town.
History
The Nagaon district tourist-place page records the brick shrine on the river bank with views of the Brahmaputra, noting its Ahom-era foundation date and appeal for history-minded pilgrims.
Assam Tourism’s statewide temple compendium separately lists a Silghat Kamakhya Temple built by the same Ahom king — a distinct Shakti site on the Silghat port belt, not to be confused with Hatimura hill.
