The OlaMata, also referred to as HireMata or DarbarMata is the focal point of Nayakanahatti.
It was the primary residence of the Guru Thipperudraswamy and he would normally entertain visitors here.

This structure was originally a temple of a local deity Maramma.
After the Guru took up residence here, a Shivaling was installed here, converting it into a Shiva temple.

The temple has 18 stone pillars with various carvings and elegantly designed stone roof.
The ‘Rajagopura’ at the entrance was added at a later date and is said to be around 200 years old.
