Sangeeth Nari Mahal is one of the important structures typically representing the Adilshahi architecture in the area. It was built in 16th century. Sangeeth Nari Mahal now has ruins of a palace building and a reservoir, enclosed by a high wall.

“Sangeet Mahal,” was constructed by Adil Shah II, known in the Indian history as “Jagadguru Badshah” for his attempts to bring cultural harmony between Shiyas and Sunnis and between Hindus and Muslims through music.

The Adil Shahi monarchs were great lovers of music; some of them attained high order. Yusuf Adil Shah played ‘’Tambur’’(Tambourine) and ‘’Ud’’ (lute). Ismail Adil Shah had high admiration for Central Asian music. Music received greater encouragement under Ibrahim Adil Shah II. He was the greatest musician of his age. He was poet and singer and maintained an inordinately a large number of musicians and minstrels (three or four thousand) at his court. The band of musicians was known as Lashkar-e-Nauras (army of Nauras) they were paid by the government regularly. At Nauraspur he constructed Sangeet Mahal and residential mansions for songsters, minstrels and dancing girls. With great pomp the festival of Nauras (musical concert) was celebrated during his time. In a number of paintings Ibrahim Adil Shah II was depicted playing musical instruments like ‘’Tambur’’, ‘’Sitar’’, ‘’Veena’’ and ‘’Guitar’’. Emperor Jahangir, and Mirza Asad Baig the Mughal envoy considerably praised Ibrahim Adil Shah 2's love for music.

Nauraspur was a former city in what is today India. It was founded in 1599 by Ibrahim Adil Shah II, the Sultan of Bijapur. It was destroyed in 1624.
