The Thiruvangad Sree Ramaswami Temple is one of Kerala’s five temples dedicated to Lord Rama which is special in every way. The temple is located in Thalassery, in the Kannur District of Kerala state. This well-maintained temple has excellent wood carvings, terracotta artwork, mural paintings carved on wooden planks in the ceilings, and is a repository of art treasure.
It is located on an elevated plot of 2.75 hectares with an adjoining temple tank known as Chira that stretches over an area of one hectare. The large temple tank is a unique feature that is beneficial to devotees. Because of the copper sheeting on its roof, the temple is known as the Brass Pagoda. In the 18th century, Tipu Sultan’s troops destroyed a portion of the temple, but the temple itself is thought to have been spared from destruction. In the eighteenth century, it was one of the Thalassery fort’s outposts.
