Singamadai Ayyanar Temple, located 18 km from Sattur in Tamil Nadu, is dedicated to Singamadai Ayyanar, who is accompanied by his consorts Purana and Pushkala. The temple's history dates back 500 years, when a devotee from Srivilliputtur, carrying sand to worship Aiyanar and other deities, saved a village from flooding by placing the sand near Singamadai Lake. This act led to the construction of the temple. Other deities in the temple include Karuppasamy, Petchi Amman, and Vinayaka.

Major festivals like Maha Shivaratri and Karthigai are celebrated, attracting devotees from nearby villages. The temple also holds a unique tradition of offering fruits in leaf boxes.
