Kolaramma Temple, Hindu temple in Kolar district, India

The Kolaramma Temple features two main shrines connected by a vestibule, with the primary shrine facing east and a secondary one oriented northward.

The temple dates back to the 10th century during the Chola dynasty rule and contains over 30 inscriptions in Kannada and Tamil languages.

Devotees participate in rituals by viewing the deity Mahishasuramardini through a mirror placed opposite to the main idol of Goddess Kolaramma.

The temple opens from 8:00 AM to 1:30 PM and 6:00 PM to 9:00 PM Monday through Thursday, with extended afternoon hours until 2:30 PM on Fridays.

The temple contains an underground hundi collection pit that has accumulated thousands of coins through a small opening over several centuries.
