Trikkur Mahadeva Temple, Rock-cut Hindu temple in Trikkur village, Kerala, India.

The natural cave temple measures 30 feet in length and 12 feet in width, housing a prominent Shivalinga at its southern section.

The temple, constructed during the 7th or 8th century, served as a meditation site for Buddhist, Jain, and Hindu monks in ancient times.

The temple holds regular ceremonies including Ganapathy Homam and Rudra Abhishekam, following traditional Kerala religious practices throughout the year.

The Department of Archaeology maintains this protected monument, with the Paliyam Trust managing daily operations through the Kshetra Samrakshana Samiti.

A waterhole above the Shivalinga remains filled with water throughout the year, even during the driest summer periods.
