San Thome Cathedral, Chennai (Madras): 5 reviews and 11 photos
The impressive Basilica is build over the tomb of St.Thomas.The orignal church was build in 14 the Century,it fell into ruins,and in 1522 the Portuguese build new church ,it was given then status of Cathedral in 1606.
Again 1893,the church was demolished and the present Church was build.The architecture of the church Gothic style Cathedral.In 1956 it has given Basilica
status as tribute to the martyred St.Thomas.
Worth visit to see old Church,but it seems getting old too fast.Same campus there is one school.You wont see many tourist here,but if you visit Chennai,then must visit this Cathedral .
Address: Santhome highroad Chennai.
Directions: Near to Marina.
