Korutla

Korutla lies in the northern Telangana plain, south of the Godavari River. The town preserves memories of an older Jain presence, including images of Jain teachers kept at the Mahadevaswamy temple. The surrounding country belonged to the domains of the Kakatiyas and later Deccan rulers, whose forts and temples marked the region. Korutla’s shrines recall the different religious communities that have shared this part of the plateau.
