In the 16th century, the Catholic church built a place of worship over St. Thomas’ tomb, but then in 1893 it was built as a church in a Neo-Gothic style. The church still stands in the same place, over St. Thomas’ tomb and is one of the three known churches in the world to be built over the tomb of one of Jesus’ apostles. It is one of the most iconic churches in Chennai and is a landmark for the Catholic church as well as a popular pilgrimage center in the country.
