History
Kuttippuram, on the northern bank of the river Bharathappuzha, was ruled by the Zamorin of Calicut during the middle ages. Kuttippuram railway station is one of the oldest railway stations in Kerala. The second railway line in Kerala was laid from Tirur to Kuttippuram in 1861, as an extension of the first line laid from Tirur to Beypore in the same year. In the 1940s, several national leaders including C. Rajagopalachari, M. Bhaktavatsalam, and Yakkob Hassan visited Kuttippuram. Fakhruddin Ali Ahmed, a former president of India, has also visited here. The ashes of Mahatma Gandhi, Jawaharlal Nehru, and Lal Bahadur Shastri, were deposited in Kerala between Tirunavaya, Kuttippuram, and Thavanur, on the bank of the river Bharathappuzha.
The Kuttippuram bridge, built in 1953, is one of the famous bridges in Kerala. The poem Kuttippuram Palam, describing the beauty of Bharathappuzha River at the sandy riverbank of Kuttippuram, was written by the poet Edasseri Govindan Nair. Kuttippuram was also a constituency of the Kerala Legislative Assembly from 1957 to 2011, which was then replaced by the Kottakkal constituency.
Tirunavaya, the centre of medieval Mamankam festival, and Athavanad, which was the centre of Azhvanchery Thamprakkal, lie adjacent to Kuttippuram.
