History of Trichy
Trichy, or Tiruchirappalli, has a glorious history that stretches back to the Sangam period (3rd c. BCE-3rd c. CE), ruled first by the Early Cholas, and then by the Pallavas, the Pandyas, the Vijayanagara Empire, and the Nayaks. The city flourished under the Nayaks of Madurai, who built many temples and forts, including the famous Rockfort Temple. A major battle ground during the Carnatic Wars in the 18th century, Trichy has been the scene of conflict between the British and French.
The British won and took control, establishing Trichy for administration and education. It is now a woven tapestry, showcasing ancient heritage, British influence, and modern developments, famous for historic temples, engineering wonders, and its vibrant culture.
