This
centuries old church at Fort Kochi was originally built completely of timber
and later reconstructed in stone masonry. It was restored in 1779 by the Protestant
Dutch, converted to an Anglican church by the British in 1795 and is at present
governed by the Church of South India. Vasco Da Gama was buried here in 1524
before his remains were moved to Lisbon, Portugal. The tombstone still remains.
