St Ignatius Church Puthenthope, Catholic church in Puthenthope, Kerala, India.

The church building incorporates modern and traditional Kerala architectural elements with a design similar to St. Joseph's Cathedral in Thiruvananthapuram.

St Francis Xavier established the initial structure during 1543-1544, and the church underwent complete reconstruction in 1989 after receiving a blessing from Pope John Paul II.
