Located in Kumarapuram near Kizhakkambalam, the Kumarapuram Subrahmanya Swamy Temple has a rich history. The temple and the surrounding land originally belonged to a Brahmin family. After the family had no surviving members, the property was taken over by the king and later handed to a local chieftain of the Araykkal family. When they too left, the temple's care was entrusted to a few Brahmin families, from whom the current management inherited responsibility. The temple has its roots in a nearby Vishnu temple, where Sree Subrahmanya Swamy was consecrated. In 1968, the temple was taken over by the Travancore Devaswom Board, and reconstruction of the more Subrahmanya Swamy and Ganapathy temples was completed the same year. Today, the temple conducts two daily pujas and celebrates Shashti and Thaipooyam with great enthusiasm.
