Poladpur is a census town in Raigad district in the Indian state of Maharashtra.
== Etymology == Poladpur is a town named after Poladjung, one of the knights in the army of Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb. He was beaten and buried at Poladpur during the Nizam Shahi Sultanate Era by the elite warriors of the Chitre clan of CKPs. Hence, the name of the town. The grave of Poladjung can still be seen on the road beyond the town council joining the national highway on the banks of the Savitri River.
