Curtorim has a predominantly [[Roman Catholic Church|Catholic]] population. The Church of [[Alexius of Rome|St. Alex]] is the main feature of the village. It is one of the oldest churches in Goa. It was built in 1597 midst a scenic natural backdrop of a lake Angoddi Tollem across the woods on the site of an ancient [[Hindu]] temple dedicated to the [[deity]] [[Ravalnath]] (a form of Lord [[Shiva]]). The remains of the ancient temple of Ravalnath are still visible today.<ref> | Curtorim has a predominantly [[Roman Catholic Church|Catholic]] population.
