Church founded by St. Thomas, the apostle of Jesus himself. Looks ignored as salty wind from sea leads to corrosion. Ezharappallikal or Seven and half Churches are the seven Churches or Christian communities across western coast of India founded by Thomas the Apostle in the first century. According to Indian Christian traditions, the Apostle Thomas arrived in Kodungallur (presently in the Indian state of Kerala) in AD 52, established the Eight Churches and evangelised in present-day Kerala and Tamil Nadu.Many of these churches built near Jewish settlements. These were at Maliankara (Kodungallur), Kollam, Niranam, Nilackal (chayal) Kokkamangalam(Kothamangalam), Kottakkayal (Paravoor or Kottakkavu), Palayoor (Chattukulangara) and Thiruvithamkode (kanyakumari). Of which Church at Maliankara is considered as first church. Church at Kanyakumari was built on the land given by arachan (king) and hence the name Arappally.
