About Murikkoli Tharavadu Temple
This is the Divine abode ( Devasthanam ) of the Murikkoli joint family. Even though it is a family temple the structure was renovated by strictly observing temple rites. The renovations were done by the Priest of Mookambika temple according to the prevailing customs at that temple. The Theyyam here is Sasthappan. Many other diverse Theyyams are also performed as part of the temple rituals.
