The local Christian community in and around Changanachery inherits its faith directly from [[Thomas the Apostle|St. Thomas the Apostle]], who formed a Christian community of faithful, centered on [[Niranam]] in the 1st century. The first church in Changanachery was established in 1177. The plot of land for the church was donated by the local Hindu king of [[Thekkumkoor]]. The current church is the fourth one in its place. The church was reconstructed and consecrated in 1887.<ref>{{cite web|author=Created by saji parakkadavil View Groups |url=http://edayan.net/group/stmaryscathedralchurchchanganacherry |title=St. Mary's Cathedral Church, Changanacherry |publisher=EDAYAN |access-date=2014-03-16}}</ref> The cathedral is ornamented with ancient Hindu temple carvings.<ref>[http://metropolitanchurchchry.org/?page_id=2 ] {{webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20111018051107/http://metropolitanchurchchry.org/?page_id=2 |date=18 October 2011 }}</ref>
