Holding the distinction of being one of the largest churches in India, St. Philomena’s Church in Mysore draws attention due to its architectural perfection. Dedicated to St. Philomena, it’s also counted as the second largest church in Asia.
The church is constructed in the Neo-Gothic or Victorian style and draws inspiration from the Cologne Cathedral of Germany. The church has been built in the shape of a cross and boasts an accommodation capacity of around 800 people. The sanctum, with its stained glass windows, enhances the beauty of the entire church and displays lovely paintings from various stages of Christ’s life including his birth, the Last Supper and the Crucifixion, among others. The pillars of the church too have been decorated with exquisite flower patterns; South India Karnataka State Mysore cathedral basilica.
