St. Mary’s Church

St. Mary’s Church is a Roman Catholic church established in the late 17th century, notable for its striking Gothic architecture and historical significance as one of the oldest churches in Chennai. Its interiors feature intricate stained glass windows and a beautifully crafted altar dedicated to the Virgin Mary, making it a focal point for both worshippers and visitors. Visiting the church offers a peaceful retreat from the city's hustle and bustle, and it’s best experienced in the early morning or late afternoon when the sunlight enhances the stained glass. Adjacent to the church is the historic Fort St. George, making it convenient to explore both sites in a single visit.
