==History==
Saoner is said to be mentioned in the Jaimini Ashwamedh under the name of Saraswatpur, and there are many legends connected with it. Ancient temple of Ganpati and Mahadeo are located at the neighbouring village of Adasa, on a hill, which is said to have been one of the gates of a great ancient city. There are also remains of a large stone fort with corner towers built for protection against the habitual raids of the Pindaris.This Stone fort belongs to Gond Raja. Now a day local people have been made houses on the fort and the fort is being totally buried below their homes. In front of the fort on the bank of river Kolhar a festival called "Pola" is celebrated since ancient time. Saoner was a town of importance under the Bhonsla dynasty and has been a municipality since 1862. The octroi tax was abolished in 1876, and since then the municipal income has been small, but during the recent years of cotton prosperity it has been expanded to Rs. 9000, which is derived chiefly from a house-tax, a small conservancy cess, bazar dues, cotton-market dues and cattle registration fees. Until very recent years lack of funds served to discourage municipal enterprise. Only the schools were maintained and some sanitation effected. But quite lately an excellent cotton-market has been constructed. It is nearly four acres in extent, is well fenced, and has a weighing machine and two wells. Near it land has been acquired by the town, and on this substantial dwellings and shops are being erected by private lessees. Saoner is also of historic importance due to its role in the 1942 Quit India Movement against the British.
