Velorvattom Sri Mahadeva Temple, Hindu temple in Cherthala, Alappuzha district, India.

Velorvattom Sri Mahadeva Temple stands with two ceremonial flag masts and features traditional Kerala architectural elements within its sacred walls and courtyards.

The temple dates back to the seventh century when Azhvanchery Thamprakkal constructed it as part of the 108 significant Shiva temples in Kerala.

The temple maintains two primary deities, Thekkanappan and Vadakkanappan, with daily rituals and ceremonies following ancient Hindu traditions of Kerala.

Located one kilometer from Cherthala KSRTC bus station near the national highway, the temple welcomes visitors throughout the year for prayers and ceremonies.

The temple complex distinguishes itself with two Nalambalam structures, a rare architectural feature found in very few Kerala temples.
