History
The history of Atpadi before the 15th/16th century is not documented. Some editions of the Stahala Purana mention the town Atpadi but the date of the writing is undocumented. In historic times, Atpadi was part of the Manank Yadav kingdom of Mandesh, ruled from the nearby village of Devapur. In the 16th century, Atapdi was part of the Adilshahi kingdom of Bijapur. Later in the 19th century, it became part of the princely state of Aundh as well as a palace city, hence it was called Atpadi Mahal. After Indian independence and the merging of Aundh into the Republic of India, Atpadi was in Khanapur Taluka in the Satara district till the new district, Sangali, was formed. After the formation of the new district, Atpadi was separated from Khanapur Taluka and made an administrative division (Taluka).
