History & tradition
Adat Shiva Temple is at Adat village in the Thrissur district of Kerala. The temple has two main deities, Sri Parameswara (Shiva) and Maha Vishnu, each with a separate temple complex: Shiva faces east and Vishnu faces west. The Shiva temple is believed to be one of the 108 Shiva temples of Kerala, with an image installed by the sage Parasurama. A local legend about the Vishnu temple connects the name Adat with Kururamma, a devotee of Guruvayurappan, and with a boy helper who turned out to be the Lord himself.
