Bhagwan Adinath Digambar Jain Atishaya Kshetra is located at Adinath Puram, Ranilla. The magnificent temple is considered very miraculous. On 18 October 1991, Idols of Shri Adinatha, the first tirthankar and Goddess Chakreshwari Devi were excavated by Ranjit Singh while working on his field. These idols were initially transferred to the nearby village and later a magnificent temple is built at the place of excavation..[2] The Moolnayak is an orange color idol with Adinath carved in the center and the rest 23 Tirthankars on 3 sides. It is believed that these idols are 1400–1500 years old.[3] The temple also has a dharamshala equipped with all modern facilities along with a bhojanalya.
