Bible Tower

Bible Tower rises within the Our Lady of Dolours Basilica complex in the heart of Thrissur city, Kerala. Kerala Tourism describes the basilica as a major Marian pilgrimage centre and identifies the Bible Tower as one of its distinctive features. The tower reaches about 261 feet and is known for artworks and murals illustrating different phases in the life of Christ, making it as much an architectural and visual landmark as a religious one.

Its vertical profile has become part of the central Thrissur skyline and complements the Gothic character of the basilica below. A visit can focus on the tower’s Christian art, the church interiors and the wider religious heritage of the city. Because it is part of an active place of worship, visitors should be mindful of services, dress expectations and any access rules that may apply to sections of the tower on the day of visit.
