History

Sri Lakshmi Narasimha Swamy Temple – Diguva Sannidhi

The Lakshmi Narasimha Temple is popularly believed to have been discovered by Yudhishthira, the eldest Pandava brother.[4] The temple's history is said to be recorded in the Brahma Vaivarta Purana, one of the old Hindu religious scriptures.[4] This temple was patronized by the Vijayanagara rulers. There is an inscription from the time of Krishnadevaraya, who had visited the temple, at the temple site.[4] The temple's tall eleven story gali gopuram was built by Vasireddy Venkatadri Nayudu, a zamindari patron and devotee of Narasimha.[4]
