There are no documentary evidence available to show exactly when this holy place was built .There is a reference to this in the sanskrit epic (Moosa kava sam) penned by the court poet of the Kolathiri king Athulan in 1100 Ad .The reference says that the popular ruler vallabhan II renovated the trichambaram Sreekrishna temple during that period.The sanctum sanctorum is in squarish shape. Inside the main temple there is a Bhagavathy shrine facing Lord Krishna, with a lotus in her hands. Behind the main sanctum sanctorum there is the enshrinement of Ananthasayanam. This sanctum sanctorum is believed to be the abode of Lord Balabhadra, Sri Krishnas elder brother . The temple also contains one of the most exquisite collection of mural paintings in south India.
