The Chembore family held a prestigious position as the preceptors of the Kings of Alangadu. According to legend, when the Kalari (martial training Center) in Alangadu was nearing closure, members of the Chembola Kuruppath family were brought from North Malabar to revive it. Entrusted with three major Kalaris and several subordinate ones, they carried their deity, Bhadrakali, on a sacred sword and consecrated it at the site where the temple now stands. Another deity was enshrined on a trident at Eloor Pattupurakkal. Historical records indicate that the Chembore property once stretched from Eloor to Karumaloor, encompassing Kalaris, classrooms, and places of worship. Initially, only a Devi temple more existed at the site. However, an esteemed astrologer from the family foresaw the extinction of his lineage within four generations. To counter this, he urged his descendants to consecrate Mahavishnu alongside the Devi. Today, the temple also houses deities such as Ganapathy, Shasthav, Nagas, and a Sarppakavu (serpent grove). The surrounding groves and ponds create a peaceful and sacred atmosphere. Approximately 28 years ago, a building on the temple grounds collapsed, destroying many ancient documents and weapons, further proving the temple’s historical significance. According to legend, Lord Ayyappa once visited this temple, and warriors from this region fought alongside him against the Marava forces. The renowned Alangattu group that journeys to Sabarimala originates from this very area.
