Dating back to the 15th century, this Catholic church is a stunning example of Gothic architecture, with its 12 towers and gleaming gold cross atop the central spire. 
Surrounded by fisherman houses and just a stone's throw away from the sea and the iconic Vivekananda Memorial, the church offers a peaceful retreat for both locals and travelers seeking solace and spiritual reflection. 
Our Lady of Ransom Church has a rich history dating back to the 15th century, when it was built as a tribute to Mother Mary. The church's connection to St. Francis Xavier and its evolution from 'Our Lady of Delights Grotto' to its current form add to its historical value. - in: https://www.avathi.com
