New Kalpathy Agraharam - History details

Founded in the late 1700s by migrating Tamil Brahmins under Palakkad Raja’s support, New Kalpathy surrounds the Visalakshi–Viswanatha Swamy Temple built in 1425. It is renowned for the 700‑year‑old Kalpathy Ratholsavam chariot festival held every mid‑November, featuring decorated temple chariots drawn through heritage-lined streets.
