Abhayapradana Prasannavaradaraja Perumal Temple

Vangal Village is situated on the southern bank of Aganda Cauvery
River at a distance of about 10 kilometers from Karur town.
The above said temple is in existence for more than three centuries
at Vangal Agraharam..It is believed that Sri Ramakrishna Muthuveera
Bhupalan, a ruler, from Madurai Nayakar Dynasty built it.

Fifteen Vaishnavite and Smartha families from Urupattur Village near
Kanchipuram migrated to Vangal Village to look after the temple.

Now the temple is in a poor condition needing immediate renovation.
The daily poojas/uthsavams are also not being performed regularly for want of financial support.

The following Renovation work has to be carried out immediately.
