Drentang Monastery, also known as Drentang Kumbum, was originally founded by Smṛtijñānakīrti in the eleventh century as a meditation hut not far from Langtang Dolma Lhakhang where he taught. It developed into a hermitage and then a monastery with the involvement of the Third Karmapa Rangjung Dorje.
