Edathua Church, also known as St. George Forane Church, sits on the banks of the river Pampa and is dedicated to St. George. Built in 1810, it's known among pilgrims for its healing tradition, and its architecture follows a medieval European style, with tall arches and pillars.
Set amidst the picturesque paddy fields, pristine backwaters and rows of enchanting coconut trees, the two-centuries-old church also holds many conventions which attract tourists from far and wide. Besides, the annual feast celebrated around the end of April and early May is the most popular attraction of the church. Considered as a venerated site and an important religious spot among the Christians, the church is also celebrated and visited by Hindus.
