Molangoor is located 30 km from Karimnagar. was ruled by the Recherla Vala family of the Velama caste. The Velama's are of the warrior caste of Andhra Pradesh from ancient times. Traditionally they have put great value on etiquette and the military virtues and take great pride in their ancestry. They are famous for their truculent code of honour and a fierce pride that led to intrigue, family feuds, and territorial warfare throughout the history of Andhra Pradesh.

The Vala chiefs were the feudatories of the Kakatiya Empire. This fort was a stronghold of the Kakatiya Kings. Along with Deverakonda and Rachakonda (recherla velama forts ) mulangoor used to act as a shield for the kakatiyas against the invading armies.

The ruins of palaces, Garrisons, stables and other structures stand as mute witness to the valour and pride of the fort. The strategic location of the fort itself speaks of the importance it had played during and after the kakatiya times. After the fall of Kakatiyas, uncertainty prevailed over the region. Several small kingdoms came into existence.

Mulangoor was lost to the Muslim invaders, and nothing much was left of the fort after the battle. The Vala's then moved and established themselves at Gangipally not far from Molangoor where they still reside.
