High-resolution observations are reported of the radio-continuum emission from the central region of the barred spiral galaxy NGC 1326. The observations include emissions from the central region at 1.49, 4.86, and 14.9 GHz, optical R-band continuum data, and H alpha emission. Also included are the results of near-IR broadband photometry at wavelengths of 1.25, 1.65, and 2.2 microns, as well as observations of the CO(1-0) and CO(2-1) emissions. The observations indicate a ring structure around a compact optical nucleus, and no strong radio source is identified for the compact nucleus. The typical electron density of the H II regions is given as more than 8/cu cm, and the electron density of the the ring emission is less than 100/cu cm. A mass model is employed to reproduce the observed velocities which suggests that the two observed rings are due to gravitational perturbation of the bar in the object.
