The city of Pune and the surrounding district have been at the centre of the history of Maharashtra for more than eight hundred years, and a number of places revered by Marathi Hindu people are located in the district. These revered places include five of the eight Ashtavinayak Ganesh temples. The Samadhi or the resting places of the two most revered Marathi Bhakti saints, namely Dnyaneshwar and Tukaram are located at Alandi and Dehu respectively. The main temple of Khandoba, the family deity for most Marathi Hindus, is also located in the district at Jejuri. The oldest temple in the city is the Pataleshwar rock-cut temple complex which was built during the 8th century.
