Historic importance

Historically, Chengannur village was ruled by "Vanjipuzha Chiefs". The "Vanjipuzha Principality" Palace situated near the river Pamba was located here before it was destroyed. The palace had close architectural similarities to that of Thrichittatt Maha Vishnu Temple. They were not Kshatriyas, but Brahmins. Venad queens, some of the Kupaka women from the Ay family of Kizhperur settled here to be married by the Madampi Brahmins of Vanjipuzha in the reign of Hoysala kings.^[1]Velu Thampi Dalawa before escaping to Mannadi was sheltered by Vanjipuzha Madhom in Adoor. Vanjipuzha Chief has a relevant position in the history of Travancore and they had the right to sit along with the Maharaja of Travancore. They were appointed protectors of the temples at Vaikom and Chengannur.^[2]
