There is a famous temple here for goddess Tripurasundari, also called as Thibbadevi.

Also, the epic says, there resides the deity's better half, Lord Shiva and her sister too. So, two temples, one each for Lord Shiva, and another for Thibbadevi's sister also exists in this village.

There will be a famous fair that happens here during the month of January or February, mostly during the festival of Sankranthi. This fair is locally known as "Chiguru odoya jaatre". Many visitors from Mysore, Bangalore, Chamrajanagara and elsewhere visit for the fair.

During this festival, goddesses from neighboring villages, who according to the priest and villagers, are supposed to be sisters of goddess Thibbadevi are bought in procession to Muguru. Traditionally the sisters of goddess come to visit sri Thibbadevi and then, the procession is taken all around the village before bringing the curtains down for the three-day Shri Thibbadevi jaatre.
