}}{{Jainism}}Jainimedu Jain temple is a 15th-century Jain temple located at Jainimedu , 3 km from the centre of Palakkad, Palakkad district, Kerala, India.[1] It is dedicated to Chandraprabha, a Tirthankar of the Jain faith.[2][3]

The celebrated Malayalam poet Kumaranasan, wrote his monumental poem Veenapoovu (The fallen flower) at a Jain house near here.[4] The place name 'Jainimedu' itself is related to this temple.

History

The Jain temple was constructed in the 15th century by a family of diamond merchants from Karnataka.[5] It was created by Inchana Satur.[6] The temple was in a dilapidated condition for the past several years.[1] At that time, there were around 400 Jain families in Jainimedu.[3] The temple was renovated in 2013 and a Panch Kalyanak was performed.[2] M. P. Veerendra Kumar, a prominent Keralite Jain, spoke at the event.[7] The rituals were led by Bhuvanakeerthi Bhattakara Swamiji, the head of Kanakagiri Jain Mutt.[8]

This is one of the few places in Kerala where the vestiges of Jainism in Kerala have survived.[4]

Description

The temple is 32 feet long and 20 feet wide and displays the images of Jain Tirthankaras and Yakshinis.[7]
