Shiva is worshipped as Uyyakondan, and is represented by the lingam. His consort Parvati is depicted as Anjanakshi Amman. The presiding deity is revered in the 7th century Tamil Saiva canonical work, the Tevaram, written by Tamil saint poets known as the Nayanars and classified as Paadal Petra Sthalam. The temple complex covers four acres, constructed on a hillock {{convert|30|m|ft|abbr=on}}. The temple has a number of shrines, with those of Uyyakondar and his consorts Maivizhi and Kanniyumaiyal, being the most prominent. All the shrines of the temple are enclosed in large concentric rectangular granite walls. The temple is approached by a flight of steps from the basement that houses the temple tank. The temple has four daily rituals at various times from 6:00 a.m. to 8:30 p.m., and four yearly festivals on its calendar. The Brahmotsavam festival is celebrated during the day of the Magam (February - March) is the most prominent festival. The original complex is believed to have been built by Cholas. In modern times, the temple is maintained and administered by the Hindu Religious and Charitable Endowments Department of the Government of Tamil Nadu. The temple has inscriptions from the Chola period.[3] ArchitectureLegendA Sri Lankan king is believed to have been blessed by the deity here.[4] HistoryThe temple has inscriptions dating from Kulothunga Chola I (1070–1118 CE), that speaks of a separate community known as Rathakarar, a sect of expert carpenter skilled in the art of designing and making temple cars.[5] The temple was occupied by French and English forces during the siege of Trichonopoly (old Tiruchirapalli) in 1753-54.[3] After the war battle of Sugar-loaf rock, English Major Lawrence marched against the fortified temple and carried it by assault.[6] Literary mentionThe temple is revered in the 7th–8th century Saivite canonical literature, Tevaram, by all the three poets, namely, Appar, Campantar and Cuntarar.[3] {{cquote|வடந்திகழ் மென்முலை யாளைப் பாகம தாக மதித்துத் தடந்திரை சேர்புனல் மாதைத் தாழ்சடை வைத்த சதுரர் இடந்திகழ் முப்புரி நூலர் துன்பமொ டின்பம தெல்லாங் கடந்தவர் காதலில் வாழுங் கற்குடி மாமலை யாரே}}[7] Cuntarar describes the feature of the deity as: {{cquote| விடையா ருங்கொடியாய் வெறியார்மலர்க் கொன்றையினாய்படையார் வெண்மழுவா பரமாய பரம்பரனே கடியார் பூம்பொழில்சூழ் திருக்கற்குடி மன்னிநின்ற அடிகேள் எம்பெருமான் அடியேனையும் அஞ்சலென்னே.}}[8] Festivals{{multiple image|caption_align=center|header_align=center|align=left |total_width=330 |width1=2448| height1=3264 |width2=2448| height2=3264 |width3=2448| height3=3264 |direction=horizontal |image1=Uyyakondan9.jpg |image2=Uyyakondan10.jpg |image3=Uyyakondan11.jpg |footer=Images of various pillars in the temple }} The temple priests perform the puja (rituals) during festivals and on a daily basis.
