    Founded over 150 years ago this Catholic church stands tall and can be seen from Park Street (Flury's corner) itself! You don't have to be a Christian to feel welcome here, so do drop in and spend some time in its calm and serene atmosphere ... been coming here since the last 45 years!!!

    St. Thomas Church, located on Park Street in Kolkata, is a beautiful example of colonial architecture. The church was built in 1787 by the British East India Company, and it is one of the oldest churches in Kolkata. The church is made of brick and has a white stucco exterior. The interior of the church is spacious and airy, with high ceilings and large windows. The church is home to a number of stained glass windows, which were donated by wealthy British families in the 18th and 19th centuries. St. Thomas Church is a popular tourist destination, and it is also a place of worship for many Christians in Kolkata. Its very peaceful and trancuil place to be. The architecture is just wonderful. Whenever visiting the park Street area, I always try to visit this church. Do visit this place when you get time!!

    Definitely not one of the oldest, but one located at a prime location in Calcutta. Had an opportunity to visit this church during my friends wedding. Really loved it. I wish them all the best. Hope to see this place soon again.

    It is located at park Street, on the way of mokambo restaurant. Usually it's not so crowded. But at the time of Christmas it became very crowded place. You can see rush over there on that time. It is a nice church, inside paintings are also very good.

    St. Thomas Church in Kolkata is an impressive historical landmark, known for its stunning architecture and serene surroundings. While I haven't been inside, from the outside, the church boasts intricate detailing and a sense of grandeur that captures the essence of Kolkata's rich heritage. Visitors can appreciate its beauty even without stepping inside. It's definitely worth a visit for those interested in history and architecture.

    It is a Roman Catholic Latin rite church, reminiscent of the colonial buildings during the imperial rule. Mother Teresa was laid in state in this church one week prior to her funeral.

    I love the church. It's better than st. Paul church because when you enter in the church you will find several statue of Mother Mary and Jesus Christ which you will not find it on St. Paul church. It open from 7am to 7pm every day. I will request you to visit once on this church.

  • 2/5 Mayur D. 4 years ago on Google
    I've rated a two star just for the beauty of the church. The church service and the clergy is too laid-back. The Service wasn't audible. The sound system needs replacement. The Pastor's homily and choir singing needs much improvement. I've been to other catholic churches in the city, but this one has been one of the worst experiences of the mass. God is glorified in the place. But people here need to do better to service the Lord. I pray that the Holy Spirit guide this church.

    This is a lovely heritage Catholic church in the heart of the city. The church is one of the biggest in town and has a beautiful interior. Behind the alter is a roof to floor stained glass window with scenes from the Bible including the last supper. The church has regular masses on weekdays and multiple masses on Sunday.
