History & tradition
The Rudreshwara Temple, more commonly known as the Ramappa Temple, is in the village of Palampet in eastern Telangana. An inscription on a basalt pillar nearby records that it was commissioned in 1213 by Recherla Rudra, a general of the Kakatiya dynasty, and built over a period of 40 years in the reign of Ganapati, the third sovereign of the dynasty. Dedicated to Shiva, it is a leading example of Kakatiya architecture, combining elements of the Dravidian and Chalukyan styles.
