The detailed history of Ashokeshwaram Sree Mahadeva Temple at Chembukkav, Thrissur, is not well-documented. However, the temple is notable for housing a separate shrine
dedicated to Kattakampal Bhagavathy, believed to be around 2000 years old and
central to the celebrated Kattakampal Pooram festival. The main deity of the temple
is Lord Siva, facing east, while the shrine of Kattakampal Bhagavathy, facing
west, stands as a significant and unique feature of the temple complex.
