Needur has been mentioned in ancient Sangam literature (Akanaanooru), and its richness and natural wealth have been described by Sundarar and Appar. It is believed that this shrine will remain indestructible through the great deluge (hence Needur). This Shivastalam is located at a distance of 1 km from the Needur railway station near Mayiladuturai. Tiruanniyur, another Shivastalam is located in the vicinity. Needur is considered to be the 21st amongst the Devara Shivastalams located North of the river Kaveri.
