Thrikkunnathu Mahadeva Temple, Hindu temple in Kanjany, Thrissur district, India.
The temple features multiple sanctums with a round Shiva shrine covered in copper sheets and a square Vishnu shrine facing west.
According to traditional accounts, the temple remained unharmed during Tipu Sultan's campaigns, who borrowed cooking vessels from the temple premises.
The temple contains a theater structure called Koothambalam where performers present traditional Kerala religious arts and ceremonies.
The temple complex extends over 2 acres near the Karuvannur River, located 1 kilometer from Kanjany Junction on the Thrissur-Triprayar route.
The primary Shiva shrine presents an unusual feature where the lingam remains covered in ghee, representing a symbolic Mount Kailash.
