About the Temple

Sacred Origin Under the Neem Tree

The sacred origin of the Temple began beneath a venerable Neem tree, where devotees first experienced the benevolent grace of Amman. With faith and prayer, Neem leaves were offered for relief from ailments such as chickenpox and smallpox, and the compassionate blessings of Muthumariamman became widely known throughout the region.

Healing Faith and Traditions

For generations, devotees have sought the divine blessings of Muthumariamman for protection and healing. The tradition of offering Neem leaves has been passed down through families, symbolizing purification and divine grace. Many devotees have experienced miraculous healing and continue to worship with deep devotion and gratitude.

Temple Evolution and History

What began as a simple place of worship gradually grew into a devoted community shrine. The initial structure was established in the year 2000 through the dedication and devotion of Shri S. R. Velmurugan and Shri Rajapandi, who recognized the importance of creating a permanent sacred space for the community.

Ongoing Reconstruction — 2025

By the continued grace of Amman and the generous contributions of devoted pilgrims, reconstruction works are presently underway to expand the Temple into a larger and more enduring sanctuary. The new gopuram (temple tower) features traditional South Indian temple architecture with intricate sculptures depicting various deities and mythological scenes.

The reconstruction project aims to create a more spacious sanctum for devotees to worship, enhanced facilities for conducting poojas and festivals, and improved accessibility for elderly and differently-abled pilgrims. This expansion represents not just physical growth, but the deepening faith of the community.
