Sawentar Temple
A small yoni pedestal lying within the temple's central chamber depicts a figure of Garuda, suggesting that the monument was dedicated to the god Wishnu.

Located
at Garum, to the east of Blitar, Candi Sawentar
shows similarities in form to Candi Kidal.
A tentative date of around the early to mid
1 3th century has consequently been assigned
to it. The base of the temple lies several
metres below the present ground level, a
result of having been buried under a mass
of lava, presumably from an eruption of nearby
Mt Kelud. The site was excavated during the
early years of this century.
