Ranga Mandapam,
also called the Ranganayakula Mandapam, is located in
the south-eastern corner of the Sampangi Pradakshinam.
The shrine within it is believed to be the place where
the utsava murti of Lord Ranganadha of Srirangam
was kept during the 14th century, when Srirangam was occupied
by Muslim rulers.
It is said to have been constructed
between 1320 and 1360 AD by the Yadava ruler Sri Ranganadha
Yadava Raya. It is constructed according to the Vijayanagara
style of architecture.
