Unprotected Monuments
Odisha, a state steeped in history and tradition, is dotted with numerous unprotected monuments that, though lacking formal recognition, bear silent testimony to the region’s vibrant cultural legacy. These lesser-known structures—ranging from ancient temples and forts to age-old sculptures and ruins—offer invaluable insights into Odisha’s past. Often hidden in remote villages or overshadowed by more celebrated sites, these monuments continue to shape the cultural consciousness of local communities and deserve greater attention for documentation and preservation.
