This is the famous Yoga Narasihma swamy temple, situated atop Devarayana durga. The orginal temple was an intricate part of the large fort sprawled over on the mountain top. Now it has become a center of pilgrimage for the inhabitants of Tumkur and beyond. Devotees flock the temple in thousands for a "darshan" of the Lord and Goddess Lakshmi on the occasion of the festivals Holi and Ramnavami. The entire hill resonates with pious devotees queing up for the temple visit and chanting the name of the Lord "Govinda. Govinda" in unison.
