Sree Perunthatta Siva Temple, Hindu temple in Thrissur district, India.

The temple features a double-story sanctum sanctorum with rectangular architecture and traditional Kerala-style tile roofing covering the main structure.

Built during ancient times, the temple fell under the direct administration of the Zamorin of Calicut and experienced destruction during Tipu's military campaigns.

The temple holds position among the 108 important Shiva temples of Kerala, with daily rituals and ceremonies maintaining Hindu spiritual traditions.

The temple occupies two acres of land near Guruvayur Temple and remains accessible through local transportation from surrounding towns.

Recent excavations at the temple site revealed two 18th-century cannons, indicating defensive preparations by Zamorin's forces against potential attacks.
