    Sadly over 100 people were murdered in this church in Easter 2019 in a terrorist attack. Few months later, the church has been renovated and it was quite busy during the evening mass standing out as a message that terrorist will never win.

    Visited during Colombo transit while coming from Beijing to Karachi in 2017. Thanks to our guide who showed us all beautiful and historic places of Negambo. I was happy to visit Jamia Mosque, Church and Historic Temple. Negambo is a best example showing religious harmony and respect among people.

    Visiting St Sebastian church a month after the deadly attacks. The place is culm and there is heavy military presence in every street corner. Making the place feels more safe.

    St Sebastian's is a large "neo-Gothic" church on the outskirts of Negombo. The life-sized Stations of the Cross in the garden in front of the church are particularly worth seeing. A must see ?

    (Translated by Google) St. Sebastian's Church is the largest Catholic church in Negombo. It is located on Sea Street. The street runs along the sea coast. You can park near the church.
