Kodeeswarar Temple, Hindu temple in Kottaiyur village, Thanjavur district, India.

This granite temple features a five-tiered entrance tower and rectangular walls enclosing multiple shrines dedicated to Lord Shiva and Parvathi.

The temple gained recognition in the 7th century through Tevaram, a Tamil Saiva canonical work written by Tamil saint poets called Nayanmars.

The temple follows traditional practices with four daily rituals and celebrates major festivals including Maha Shivaratri, Margaḻi Tiruvathirai, and Panguni Uthiram.

Located on the western outskirts of Kumbakonam, the temple operates from 6:00 AM to 8:00 PM and spans across one acre with two enclosure walls.

The temple displays planetary deities with their respective chariots and participates in the Mahamaham festival occurring every twelve years in Kumbakonam.
