HISTORY
The first Catholic Church in Ooty.
In 1837 Rev. Fr. Bigot Beauclair visited Ootacamund and within 2 years the
construction of a Church was commenced which is now St. Joseph’s Primary
School. As the catholic population of Ootacamund increased, the original church
was found inadequate and a much larger one was constructed in 1870 which is the
present church of St. Mary’s.
God bless you.
