History:
The temple has been widely expanded by Chola kings during the 11th century. The temple has three tiered gateway tower and a tank. Since Shiva bestowed a deer with a mango, this place is called Manthurai.
Presiding Deity is called as Maanturaiappar / Mrugandeeswarar /Suthrathaneswarar / Aathirathneswarar / Amravaneswarar and Mother is called as Azhagammai /Balambal.
It is one of the 275 Paadal Petra Sthalams, where the three of the most revered Nayanmars (Saivite Saints), Appar and Thirugnana Sambandar have glorified the temple with their verses during the 7th-8th century.
This shrine is referred to as Vada Karai Manthurai in contrast to the Manthurai near Tirumangalakudi, south of the Kaveri, which is a Sthalam referred to in the Thevaram.
Arunagirinathar has revered Murugan in this temple in his verses in Thiruppugazh. This is the 112nd Devaram Paadal Petra Shiva Sthalam and 58th Sthalam on the northern side of river Cauvery of Chozha Nadu.
This place is also called as Thirumaanthurai. The temple has six daily rituals at various times from 5:30 a.m. to 10 p.m., and twelve yearly festivals on its calendar.
The Chittirai festival during the Tamil month of Chittirai (April - May) is celebrated for fifteen days, portraying the various incidents associated with the temple legend.
