Its very close to Colaba Causeway...and what a peaceful place😌....Being a hindu I find peace in this place.

Serenity at its best and wonderful architecture. Stay blessed and let there be peace unto all.

Used to attend mass there on sunday evenings. I reside in Navi Mumbai but prefered to visit this place atleast once or twice a month. The interior of the church and the mass conducted there felt quite different and satifying. One the best Churchs to visit.

Very nice and beautiful place... Its a must see place to the visitors.. This place will refresh your mind nd provides you the ultimate peace.. The Sunday prayer is awesome..

Beautiful Church. Lives up to the title of Cathedral. A must visit for both the architecture and the experience of pure peace.

It is one of the most beautiful cathedrals I have ever seen in India. The ambiance of this place is holy. It is a very well maintained cathedral with respect to its age and the locality is also quite. It is advisable to visit this place in the evening during Christmas time as it is decorated which enhances its beauty to the next level.

One of the best hurch to visit in town.Specially during christmas timings.Ancient architecture and still well maintained.

This is a beautiful cathedral, coining Mumbais beautiful works of history, with its amazing architecture. A calm and serene place for devotees. A must visit.

The Cathedral of the Holy Name is a Roman Catholic cathedral in the Indian city of Mumbai and the seat of the Archbishop of Mumbai and headquarters of the Archdiocese of Bombay . The cathedral is located in the Colaba area in South Mumbai.

Found it quite beautiful for a church in a country with such a relatively small % of Christian population

Good Divine Place and also Architecture is Soo good. Serene and Peaceful ambiance area near Church.

This church is awesome. The gothic art and paintings are just spectacular.

A must visit to all the mumbaikars... The architecture is just mind blowing

A beautiful, stone building with inspiring spires in the heart of Mumbai is a holy place for the devouts and a marvelous piece of architecture.The arches, stained glass windows, doors and entrances all are enchanting and steeped with history.This church is well maintained and well attended.

Though small for a cathedral, its magnificent all the same. Also one of the only churches that still uses its pipe organ for mass.

Beautiful place, so gorgeous wall painting, lovely gardens around, holy atmosphere, God is there!!!

Such great Ambience! Felt like a visit to a Roman Catholic Church. 😊

Situated in the commercially prominent spot of Colaba, Cathedral of the Holy Name is the Seat of the Archbishop and is considered as the ‘Mother Church’ of the Archdiocese. The Cathedral dates back to the colonial era. On 9th July 1902, the ‘foundation stone’ of the building was laid and it was opened for its disciples on 15th January 1905. In the year 1998, Cathedral of the Holy Name was given the status of heritage building.The main door of Holy Name Church has been declared as one among the ‘Holy Doors of Mercy’. Catholics walk pass this door seeking purification and forgiveness. It is a site of pilgrimage for Catholics. It has been further declared by Pope Francis that the door is to remain open for devotees till November 13 2016, as this year has already been declared as ‘year of mercy’. Until now, there was only one such holy door in Vatican. The structure bears witness to the life cycle of the community from birth till death. The entire structure consists of the Fort Convent, the Cathedral House, and the Cathedral that stands at Wodehouse Road spreading over an area of 4,642 square yards. Archbishop’s place of living is located nearby to the Cathedral.

This is one of the amazing place with full accessibility for Disabled and senior citizens beautiful garden outside and inside washroom facilities available for all. This place is having beautiful wall painting inside and very peaceful place. The inside decoration is highly appreciated work. You must visit with your family and friends to have fun and relaxation after mass. Peace of mind.

The Cathedral of the Holy Name is located in the Colaba area in South Mumbai.In the year 1998, Cathedral of the Holy Name was given the status of heritage building.

The Cathedral of the Holy Name is a Beautifully designed Catholic Church in Gothic architecture!! Great paintings on the ceilings and stunning glass painted windows of various colours. A historical Landmark at Old Bombay. Blessed to have visited one of the oldest Cathedrals at Colaba. Opened for worship since 1905..

The Cathedral of the Holy Name is a Roman Catholic cathedral in the Indian city of Mumbai (Bombay) and the seat of the Archbishop of Bombay and headquarters of the Archdiocese of Bombay . The cathedral is located in the Colaba area in South Mumbai. The residence of the Archbishop is located adjacent to the Cathedral.This Cathedral was built to replace the older Cathedral which was located in the Bhuleshwar area of the city, where there are few resident Christians. That site was sold off, and the former parochial church of the Holy Name in Colaba was elevated as the Pro-Cathedral.The site of this church is very close to the site of the former Portuguese Church of Our Lady of Hope, or Nossa Senhora da Esperanca, that was confiscated by the English from the Padroado party and handed over to the Propaganda partys Vicar ApostolicAthanasius Hartmann. The Esperanca Church was demolished by the Propagandists soon after, and in its place the present Esperanca Building, also called the Eucharistic Congress Building, behind the Holy Name Cathedral, was built to house the delegates to the 38th International Eucharistic Congress in the 1960s.It is known for its frescoes, pipe organ, a large gold embroidered stole gifted by Pope John XXIII, and another by Pope Pius XII containing the red hat given to Cardinal Valerian Gracias, and a bell gifted by Pope Paul VI during the 38th International Eucharistic Congress held in Mumbai in 1964.It is one of the two more known cathedrals in the city, the other being the older, Anglican, Cathedral of St. Thomas the Apostle. Other Cathedrals in the city include those of the  Jacobites  and the Syro-Malankara  Rite,In addition, there were at least two other buildings which, while not strictly Cathedrals, were popularly styled as being Pro-Cathedrals of the Padroado party Bishop of Daman, who resided normally at the Portuguese government - owned Blessed Sacrament Chapel in Middle Colaba — St. Francis Xavier Church in Dabul and the Church of Our Lady of Glory (Nossa Senhora da Gloria) or Gloria Church in Byculla.Source - WIKI

Heritage architectureCalmClean place

Peaceful place

I love the paintings on the walls of the Cathedral 😍

An excellent church to visit. The old fashioned construction is an eye catcher. The positive energy one gets by entering the church is enormous. The roof painting are wonderful though it has started deteriorating from the aft right corner - needs to be maintained on urgent basis

It is one of the most beautiful cathedrals located in South Mumbai. The ceiling is covered with paintings and adorned with sculptures of different saints. The altar is rather big and beautiful to look at. The place has a very calm and serene ambience. The stained glass work also gives a beautiful natural light effect to the entire cathedral. The arches and the entire architecture is mesmerizing to look at.

My place for quiet, reflection and a prayer !!!

Oldest and beautiful scriptured catholic Church

This Church is extremely Beautiful... It is so peaceful.. one can just sit there for hours and watch the Beautiful interior ...Its a must visit if your Mumbai... Its close by to the station so its not difficult to find .. and Its famous among the locals as well.. so its not difficult to find. .

Fantastic work of architecture and art combined into one great structure. The ceiling of the church is painted with various beautiful images by an Italian painter back in the early 20th century. Along the inner walls of the church, are the 10 stations of the cross, each station is a highly detailed oil painting mounted on an exquisitely carved frame.

The beauty of the morning sunlight shooting rays of colours through the coloured glass windows behind the altar is absolutely magical. A very peaceful place

A very calm and beautiful cathedral to pray. The surrounding is also extremely aesthetic and you can even loiter around for a bit to enjoy the greenness. Overall, a very very serene place.

Nicely lit up... Great architecture... And a place where you can find peace and solace

Its the apex church of the diocese of Bombay. The archbishop of Bombay resides here. The architectural design is a delight to watch. Serene and peaceful meditative atmosphere. It is also known as the Wodehouse church. Well maintained and clean surrounding.

Very peaceful and beautiful church it is. Amidst cities Chaos this place offers you solace. And architecture is one of its kind. Must visit

It is our family Parish, a truly holy & remarkable religious church with a calm & prayerful surrounding. With a stunning old world architecture, beautiful paintings & stained glass windows. Truly a memorable experience. Privileged to belong here.

One of the priests from this church was most rude. He had no real joy when genuinely asked I want to become a priest how do i go about it he just said Google it. REALLY???? Such a Pharisee. Id rather walk to another church where the priest there makes you feel like you belong.

Lovely interior. Spacious. Good wash rooms. Good holy mass service.

Very beautiful. Calm quiet and peaceful. Attending Holy mass here is a beautiful experience and you look up to murealsof the heavens.

Favourite place all time 😇

I attended the Sunday evening mass. If you havent attended any till now, its a surreal experience. Starts at 6.30pm.Plus the interiors are all vintage and exquisite.

I LOVE GOING TO THE HOLY NAME CATHEDRAL FOR MASS. I FEEL ENRICHED WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT.

This church gives you a feeling of peace and keeps you stunned by the gothic architecture. I would actually appreciate the British rule for giving us such a treat.

Beautiful church ..calm and serene...the painting on the ceiling... simply awesome...the altar looks vintage...all in all...an awesome place to pray ur heart out ..

Wodehouse church is truly unique & has a rich heritage. The stained glass & the gothic structure is so beautiful. I enter this church and it instantly has this ability to relax you so you may connect with God more freely. Everywhere you look there is art and the love of God reflects in every piece of workmanship. A must visit whenever in Mumbai.

Amazing art work every where in the church interiors are filled with the beautiful paintings of the bible characters and filled with beautiful sculptures. The glass light paintings are the attraction. Its located in a quite place. Architecture of the church is amazing. A must place when you are in Mumbai.

Located at a peaceful location in Mumbai , surrounded by a lot of greenery ,makes this place an ideal for one on one interaction with god. the Church itself is beautiful with hints of gothic and victorian architecture. My favourite part was the painting on the ceiling , its beautiful.

Amazing place with awesome architecture. Near to other tourist places such as gateway of India.

Excellent Art work on the walls n ceiling. Just like St. Aloysius in Mangalore. Done by the same painter

Serene and idyllic. The archbishop of Mumbai was at the Christmas mass

Beautiful....It has a charm of its own. Simple attractive and one feels like praying.

Beautiful cathedral. The paintings inside (walls and ceiling) are old and magnificent.

It is the Archdiocese of Bombay Center and the cathedral has maintained its old world charm with lovely stained glass paintings and superb ceiling paintings.

Its good place to visit the interior is beautiful

Awesome place. Quite n simple

Must visit. Love the vibe that the place has. The Gothic architecture takes you back in time.

A beautiful Catholic Cathedral that is well hidden right in plain sight near Bombay icons like the Gateway of India and Café Mondegar.It is usually rather tranquil here in the evenings on weekdays and the chance to gaze at the many saints that adorn the ceiling and pillars of this church make it well worth visit at such a time.

My church. The best in Mumbai

Beautiful serene church dipped in history...

The Cathedral of the Holy Name is a Roman Catholic cathedral in Mumbai(Bombay) and the seat of the Archbishop of Bombay and headquarters of the Archdiocese of Bombay . The cathedral is located in the Colaba in South Mumbai. To the people of a Parish, their Church is precious. It is where they gather for worship, where they receive the sacraments, where they are taught the meaning of community, where they mark the special seasons of the Church and where they get to know their priests – it is the core, the centre, the heart. The Parish church is the immutable structure that bears witness to the life of a Parish from birth to death.

Its a very good church and its also spacious

Best and the most beautiful church in Mumbai.

Serene, peaceful ambience, area also peaceful. Can still find parking place around there.
