This Chola region under the flow of Cauvery river is praised by many names for its fertility and richness. Many poets had sung the glory of this region added by references in scriptures. The history of this temple begins from the Thanjavur king Prataba Simha and Maharaja Venkoji who established the Maratha empire then. King Prataba Simha had built two temples in Needamangalam and a rest house known as choultry. Temples of Lord Santhana Ramaswami and Kasi Viswanatha add further importance.
