The history of Perumathura dates back from the period of the Legendary King Cheraman Perumal who ruled

The present scenario
The present population of Peruamthura is around 10,000, 95% of them belonging to the Islamic community. This is due to the effect of Cherman Perumal's conversion to Islam. 4% are follower's of the Christian faith and the balance worship the Hindu gods.
