The Jain Temple in Sulthan Bathery is one of the most important among the many Jain temples in Kerala.
The Bathery Jain Temple, dating back to the 13th century, is said to have been built in the prevalent architectural style of the then reigning Vijayanagar Dynasty.
Tipu Sultan set up his battery at this site, and today the entirety of Sulthan Bathery is named after the same. One is immediately made aware of the sanctity and colourful past that shrouds this temple in both grandeur and mystique.
The temple is now a protected monument under the Archaeological Survey of India.
