CITY PROFILE

1.1 INTRODUCTION

Gulbarga is situated in north Karnataka and was formerly known as Kalburgi which translated to stony

land in Kannada. It’s bounded by the Maharastrian districts of Bijapur and Solapur on the west and Bidar

and Osmanabad on the north. To its south is Yadgir and to its east is the Rangareddy district of Andhra

From 1724 to 1948 the territory occupied by present day Gulbarga district was part of Hyderabad state

ruled by the famous Nizams. It was integrated into India in September 1948.

Gulbarga’s old fort is in a rather deteriorated state, but it has a number of interesting buildings inside

including the Jama Masjid, reputed to have been built by a Moorish architect during the late 14th or early

15th century who imitated the great mosque in Cordoba, Spain. The mosque is unique in India, with a

huge dome covering the whole area, four smaller ones at the corners. The fort itself has 15 towers.

Gulbarga also has a number of imposing tombs of Bahmani kings, a shrine to an important Muslim saint

and the Sharana Basaveshwara Temple.
