Sri Rajagopalaswamy Temple, also referred to as Santhana Rajagopalaswamy Temple is present in Agraharam street of Rajamadam Village. He came in dreams of King Serfoji II and blessed him with male child when the king was praying for an heir. For thanking him, the king built a temple along with a Madam and constructed the Rajamadam village. This deity looks like Rajagopalaswamy of Mannargudi.
