Architecture
There are 3 hills which are known as Brahma, Vishnu and Maheswara hills, hence the temple got its name Tri (Kutams) Kuteswara Swamy. There are so many ponds on the hill, which eight are located in front of the temple. Brahma Shikharam is the main temple which is located on this hill. The Paata Kotayya temple is located at Rudra Shikharam. This is the original place where Trikoteshwara Swamy existed. Pleased by the devotion of Gollabhama, Lord relocated to Brahma Shikharam. Since then it is known as Paata Kotayya temple. Lord Papanaseshwara Temple is located on Vishnu Shikharam. Here, the Lord Vishnu did penance to please Lord Shiva. The temple has a holy pond which is known as “Papanasa Teertha”.
