About

Galaganatha Galageshwara Temple on the Tungabhadra River in Haveri district is an 11th-century Kalyani Chalukya Vesara temple featuring a remarkably steep, multi-tiered curvilinear shikhara rising over a star-shaped base.

Dedicated to Shiva, its riverfront setting and well-preserved outer wall friezes make it a textbook subject of Chalukyan architectural studies.
