History
The Thennangur Panduranga Temple is a relatively new temple, conceived and built by Sri Panduranga Rukmini Seva Trust. The construction began in the late 20th century, and the temple was consecrated and opened to the public in the early 21st century. The vision behind the temple was to create a space dedicated to Lord Panduranga Vittala, similar to the famous Pandharpur temple in Maharashtra. The temple was built with meticulous attention to detail, following traditional South Indian temple architecture principles. The founders aimed to establish a center for devotion, spiritual learning, and community service. Over the years, the temple has grown in popularity, attracting devotees and tourists from all over India and beyond.
