Manikarneswar Devalaya (Assamese: মণিকৰ্ণেশ্বৰ দেৱালয়), situated at the top of Manikhalaya hill in Assam, North Guwahati is a temple dedicated to god Shiva. The present brick temple was built by Ahom King Rajeswar Singha in 1755 C.E. upon a star-shaped ground plan of a stone temple of the 10–11th century and made arrangements for regular worship at this temple.
The temple's shikhara got destroyed in the earthquake of 1897 and is currently roofed with a tin.
