The Kote Anjaneya Temple is a Hanuman temple in the heart of Tumkur, located within the remains of the old fort area (kote). The temple is an active place of worship and draws a steady stream of devotees throughout the day, particularly on Saturdays and Tuesdays, which are considered auspicious for Hanuman worship in the Kannada tradition.
The temple is modest in scale but well-maintained, and the surrounding fort area retains some old walls and an atmospheric market quarter. It makes a reasonable stop if you are exploring the town centre and want a glimpse of everyday religious life in Karnataka beyond the tourist circuit.
