Located very near to Shivajinagar Bus Station. Very Calm Place. Place is maintained very Neatly. I usually go there in the Evenings. Standing before the St. Mary's Statue gives immense relief. Even during Festival time, Order is maintained. Though situated in a Crowded Area, once you enter the Basilica, you will feel entirely different. Masses are conducted in English, Kannada and Tamil. There is a Hall for conducting Wedding and Wedding Reception and other functions.
A Basilica! True blessings, peace of mind, relief from stress guaranteed. Best to attend a mass here, priests are very knowledgeable and helpful. Every festival is celebrated in a grand manner and you'd love the way the church is decorated for every occasion. Annual feast of 10 days celebrated every year ending on September 8th. On all these 10 days, masses are conducted for every half an hour starting from 5 in the morning in Tamil, English, Kannada languages.
It's 150 year old Church considered to be one of the miraculous place in Bangalore however not maintained well - you will find amazing restaurants in just few minutes walkable distance. It's very near from shivaji Nagar bus stand you will also find nearby places for shopping. I have not seen anyother church in Bangalore which has this number of visitors or devoties visiting on daily basis.
Minor Basilica. One of the oldest Church visited by thousands of people irrespective of religion followed by them. Worth calling this Church a historical place for its looks
A historic church dedicated to Our Lady. A beautiful and prayerful atmosphere welcomes you with calmness and warmth. It is located right opposite to the Shivaji Nagar Bus Terminus and so you can get to this church from any part of Bengaluru City.
Historic and landmark place. Surrounding area is crowded and shabby but church premises is neat and beautiful. St.Mary's feast held annually is a grand event here.
A good church. The church building looks nice. It is very near to shivaji nagar bus stand and commercial street. There is wheelchair accesible entrance into the compound. Small parking area is available. Function hall is there. Church is always crowded.
From time nostalgic surviving plagues, then Blakpalli of British India to a Baslica. St Mary's Basilica is historical to Catholics of Bangalore & KGF. Our Lady of Health. Bless all of us. 2018 Easter: Maundy Thursday mass was good. Heard Latin song after a very long time nostalgic. Good Friday Passion of Christ readings in Tamil at 5:30 pm mass was too good & brought back old memories for people born in 50s, 60s & 70s. Happy Easter 2018 to all. God Bless
Nice church. But it's located in heart of the city. So very high traffic to reach. Also nearby markets are there. So always noise will be there... But infrastructure wise church is very awesome.
Busy Basilica! Considered to be a powerful place of pilgrimage, the donation of sarees is a huge attraction. The ancient church is a symbol of the old European architecture. The service is carried out in English, Tamil and Kanada. The chapel beside the church is a peaceful place to spend in devotion. The Basilica is crowded 24/7. Getting there is also cumbersome during holidays due to Russell Market, Commercial street and Bus stand crowds.
Nice church. But the location of the church is not good at all. It is really very close to the market. When I reach there it stinks.
This is really a great and peaceful place to visit. The architecture is designed so gracefully and beautifully. I visited here during Christmas and this place was decorated so beautifully and have maintained the crowd well. I would recommend not to bring your Car or vehicle here. This is at walkable distance from. Major bus stops . I would definitely recommend everybody to visit here once. 😊😊

I think this is an old church 😍😍 but still they are maintaining well. A very neat and peacefull Holy and historical place everyone must visit. Ignore the surroundings (busy streets, crowdy ) once you entered into church environment you can find peace and blessings, you'll feel that divinity.
