Renapur is a City in Latur subdivision of Latur District in the Indian state of Maharashtra. It is the headquarters for Renapur Taluka. The town is located 20 kilometres from the city of Latur, the district administrative centre. There is a temple of Renuka devi, and there is a river named Rena. Because of these two reasons Renapur is very popular. There is a popular market named "Chandani chowk".
Due to an influx of workers to the city of Latur, it expanded towards Renapur during the 1990s, 2000s and 2010s. Formerly, Renapur was in Beed District, but it was moved to Latur District.
