History

Madiwala is one of the oldest localities in Bangalore. It has been speculated to have been the centre of Bangalore in the past, based on archaeological documents. The temple of Someshwara contains inscriptions that refer to the Chola kings having presided over the construction of the Temple of Someshwara in Madiwala. Madiwala means washerman in Kannada; the locality was named for the community of washermen and washerwomen that once resided in the area.
