It is an ancient shrine and one of the most celebrated temples of Lord Shiva. History tells us that the temple was abandoned for sometime and was restored by Vilwamangala Swamy who is associated with many other Kerala temples. Renovation was carried out in the 16th century and since then the temple has flourished. The sanctum is circular in shape with a conical copper plated roof. The idol faces the west which is unusual and is said to add to the power of the Deity. Carvings and murals are exemplary. A golden staff visible from afar is placed in front of the shrine.
