Kadu Malleshwara Mandir. In 1997, construction began on an empty land diagonally opp. to Kadu Malleshwara Mandir, during evacuation of a mound for construction the workers discovered the spire of a Mandir. They dug deeper & found there was a large Mandir.

ASI team then completed the excavation & found a perfectly preserved central pool of water surrounded by granite steps & pillared mantapas. The Mandir houses a Shivling continuously abhishekam with water dripping from the mouth of a Nandi moorthy.

When ASI cleaned the mouth of Nandi, they found a small stream of water started pouring out continuously. And when the land was cleared at the bottom, they discovered the water abhishekam done for Shivalinga & joined the pond in the middle of the Mandir complex.

Source of the continuous stream of water from Nandi statue mouth is unknown.
