Tirur is a part of the first laid railroad by the British in Kerala. Tirur is the place where the 16th century poet Thunchaththu Ramanujan Ezhuthachan lived, who is considered to be the father of the Malayalam language literature. He was born in Trikkantiyur, in the town of Tirur. Ezhuthachan taught his pupils to respect and worship the Malayalam language and the Arya-ezhuttu alphabet. He refined the Malayalam language style and wrote his works for ordinary people, incorporating whatever was good with a strong sense of righteousness and worship. His contribution to the Malayalam language through the Adhyathmaramayanam (a translation of the Ramayana and Mahabharatham (a translation of the Mahabharata) is unparalleled, and his contribution on the cultural level is immense.
