Neyyattinkara Shri Krishnaswamy Temple was built in 1755, by Marthanda Varma, the then maharajah of the erstwhile Indian princely state of Travancore. The history/legend behind the construction of this temple is that, about 250 years ago, during the reign of King Ramavarma, the Travancore prince Anizhamthirunal Marthanda Varma, who took strong action against “Ettuveettil Pillamar” was surrounded by his enemies. At that time a boy came and led the prince to a jack tree, which had a hollow trunk. The prince hid inside it and escaped from the enemies. Later the astrologer said to the king that, the boy who showed him the hideout was actually “Lord Krishna.” The maharajah then decided to build a temple for Lord Krishna, as a mark of gratitude for saving his life, near the jack tree. This was popularly called 'Ammachi plavu' (Mother jack tree) as it protected the maharajah from his enemies. The remnants of the tree is still preserved there.
