Church of the Sacred Heart of Jesus

The Church of the Sacred Heart of Jesus is Located on Subbayah Salai in Pondicherry town. This white and brown neo-gothic church is one of Pondicherry's finest Catholic churches.

It was built by French missionaries in the early 18th century in a contrasting manner, with towers flanking a central gable and stained glass windows on the side.

Along the southern boulevard is the cemetery which has some interesting tombs with ornate marble decorations.
