MUTHIRERY TEMPLE

As the legend goes, the Siva temple at Muthirery has links with Kottiyoor Siva Temple.
According to the custom, the Godly sword for the ‘vaisakham festival of Kottiyoor temple
is taken from the Muthirery temple. The idol of Sivalingam worshiped like that of Kottiyoor
temple. The belief is that the temple cannot have a roof and hence the idol is placed over
a stone platform with stone walls around.

The Muthireri Shiva Temple is indeed located in Wayanad, a district in the Indian state of Kerala. Wayanad is known for its scenic beauty and cultural heritage, and the Muthireri Shiva Temple adds to its cultural significance. As a Hindu temple dedicated to Lord Shiva, it likely attracts devotees and visitors seeking spiritual solace and cultural experiences. Unfortunately, I don’t have specific details about the temple’s history or architecture, but it’s likely a place of worship and pilgrimage for devotees of Lord Shiva in the region. If you’re planning to visit the Muthireri Shiva Temple, local tourist information centers or online resources may provide more detailed information about its significance and visiting guidelines.

The temple is at Muthirery beside the Mananthavady – Yavanarkulam road, about 12 km
West of Mananthavady.
