St Bartholomew's Church, Catholic church in Chorão, India
The church building features Baroque architectural elements, including a prominent facade, bell tower, and ornate wooden ceiling supported by laterite stone walls.
Founded in 1569 by the Society of Jesus, the church transitioned to diocesan clergy administration in 1597 under the Archdiocese of Goa and Daman.
The annual feast of Saint Bartholomew brings together the local community for traditional religious ceremonies, masses, and social gatherings at the church.
Visitors can reach the church via ferry services connecting Chorão Island to mainland Goa, with regular boat departures throughout the day.
The church stands between the Mapusa and Naroa rivers, connecting the parishes of Aldona, Pomburpa, and Our Lady of Grace through waterways.
