The September earthquake in 2009 had damaged the dzong. The dzong’s walls, made of out of timber, were also old and decaying. The Dzong was renovated several times in the past as well.

The renovation for this time began in August 2009 and was completed in October 2013.

The Lhuentse Dzong was renovated under the Lhuentse Dzong Conservation Project. The renovation was funded by the Government of India. The cost came up to little more than Nu. 162 millions.
