<!--History of Kundapur is linked to Basruru, the port town {{convert|6|km|mi|abbr=on}} away. Basuru was a trading centre which had sea route contacts with the Middle East. Merchant ships from Muscat and other places used to come here during 14&ndash;16th century to collect pepper, good quality rice. Bigger ships used to travel up to Basruru, in those days, and now the river has filled up with silt. Basrur was a well-planned town with major amenities available in those days. Several streets named after weavers, business, music etc. are still available in Basruru, which is reduced to a small village during the 20th century. It was the principal port of the Rajas of Baindoor who came to prominence after the decline of the [[Vijayanagara]] power. The Portuguese and German missionaries settled here in the 16th century and built a [[fort]]. Later Kundapur, which is nearer to shore also started drawing attention. A well-built redoubt constructed by [[Hyder Ali]] commands the entrance to the river. After the fall of [[Tipu Sultan]] in 1799, the town was taken over by the British. During British Raj, people of Kundapur also participated in the call for independence given by Gandhiji and other leaders.-->
