The temple holds very high religious and archaeological significance to the Hindus. It is both a Jyotirlinga and Shakti Peeth, and also a Paadal Petra Sthalam. The Sthalams are 275 temples that were celebrated in the verses of Saiva Nayanars in the 6th-9th century CE. The Nayanars were a group of 63 saints living in Tamil Nadu who composed hymns to honor Lord Shiva. Hindus consider Padal Petra Sthalams to be amongst the most significant Shiva temples of the continent.
The Mallikarujna temple, with its vibrant architecture and numerous shrines, has a massive significance to archaeologists. It is an ancient monument which reveals enormous amounts of culture and history about the era of god-kings. The temple complex is plush with religious halls, mandaps, and intricately carved pillars.
