Begur Fort & Panchalingeshwara Precinct, Bengaluru - History details

A small mud/stone fort beside Nageshwara/Panchalingeshwara temples at Begur preserves the earliest known ‘Bengaluru’ inscription (c. 890 CE). The Ganga‑Chola‑era complex shows layered history and hero stones; today the fort’s low walls and gateway ring a grassy enclosure near south Bengaluru’s Hosur Road corridor.
