Thiruverumbur is a place located on the outskirts of Trichy. Sri Erumbeeshwarar Temple is located on a small hillock of about 60 feet height.. It is learnt that King Adithya Chola has built many Shive Temples along the banks of River Cauvery and this Erumbeeswarar Temple happens to be one among them. It is known as Malai Kovil and could be reached through steps. The Presiding deity of this Temple is Arulmigu Erumbeeswarar who is in the form of a Siva Lingam and He is considered as an incarnation of Lord Shiva. It is said that this Shiva Lingam is a Swayambu and made out of Sand as a result of which No Abishekam is done here. According to the legend, there lived a demon Tharukasura, who was an ardent Devotee of Lord Shiva, but was against other Gods. So he never allowed any one to enter in this Temple. Brahma, Indra and all other Gods took the form of Ants (Erumbu in Tamil) to hide from the Demon and worshiped Lord at this place. The Presiding deity of Sri Erumbeeswarar who is in the form of a Shiva Lingam is seen tilted and stanting at a particular direction. Likewise a closer look at the Siva Lingam would reveal that the Lingam has ant marks that had crept on the Shiva Lingam. The Consort of Sri Erumbeeswarar is known here as Saurabhya Kudalaambal or Goddess Narunkuzhal Nayaki and She is seen in a separate Shrine. There is another Mandabam at the foot hill of the Temple. The Temple premises has been kept neat and tidy and it is managed by The Archaeological Survey of India.
