Erumbeeswarar Temple, Hindu temple in Tiruverumbur, India.
Erumbeeswarar Temple stands on a 60-foot hill, featuring Dravidian architecture with two enclosures and a mandapa at the base of the elevation point.
The temple construction dates to the late 9th century during the Chola dynasty, when King Aditya I built it to commemorate his victory at Tirupurambiyam Battle.
The temple contains 49 inscriptions from the Chola period, with references in Tamil literature including the Tevaram poems and Manickavasagar's works.
The temple operates from 6:30 AM to 12:00 PM and 4:30 PM to 8:30 PM, located 13 kilometers from Tiruchirappalli Junction railway station.
The main deity appears as an irregular sand anthill formation, requiring a metal cover during religious ceremonies due to its delicate texture.
