Tirunavaya Temple, officially known as Tirunavaya Sree Navamukunda Temple, is an ancient Hindu temple located in Tirunavaya, central Kerala, India. Situated on the northern bank of the Bharatappuzha River (also known as River Ponnani), the temple is dedicated to Navamukundan, a form of Narayana-Vishnu.

The temple is celebrated in the Divya Prabandha, an early medieval Tamil anthology of hymns composed by the Vaishnava Alvars. It holds the distinction of being one of the 108 Divya Desams, sacred shrines dedicated to Lord Vishnu.

The temple lacks a pond or well, relying instead on water sourced from the nearby river for all its rituals. Notably, the Cherutirunavaya Brahma and Shiva Temples are situated across the River Ponnani, enhancing the temple's spiritual significance.

The temple served as the site for the Mamankams, a grand festival held every twelve years since at least the 8th century CE. Unfortunately, the temple structure was attacked and destroyed during the invasion of Kerala by Tipu Sultan of Mysore.
