Church of the Blessed Virgin Mary

The Church of the Blessed Virgin Mary is a Catholic church located on the island of Sumatra in the city of Medan, b the center of Catholic pilgrimage in Indonesia. Its members are mainly Tamils.

Construction of the church in Medan under the leadership of James Bharaputra began in September 2001 and was completed in 2005. It is a two-storey building with one main and two side domes, made in the Indonesian style.

The temple of the same name is located in India, named so in honor of a significant event in the life of believers and preachers of Christianity. According to legend, in this place the Virgin Mary appeared to two children, thereby illuminating the place and endowing it with mysterious power.

The architecture of this temple is completely different from the usual. The building is decorated with several religious symbols, but they are in harmony with the structure of the temple and do not break the unity. Aesthetic and religious values expressed in the exterior and interior harmoniously express the sublimity and the great mystery of divine greatness.
