The history of Sree Thrippayya Thrimoorthi Temple goes back many centuries. Kerala is a land of Temples. In ancient times there were only 'Kav”s in this area. Big structures built as temples came into existence only later. Irinjalakuda was one among the centres of cultural excellence called ‘gramam’s in ancient Kerala. 64 such gramams constitute the present Kerala State. These gramams were owned, ruled and run by Kerala Brahmins called Namboodiris.
