The Indo-Portuguese Museum of Kochi highlights the conspicuous Portuguese impact in both art and the architecture. The Indo Portuguese museum in Cochin is a recognized center to know the still-surviving Indo-Portuguese Christian Art heritage. The museum is the product of the determined and persistent efforts of late Dr. Joseph Kureethra, Bishop of Kochi. In order to protect his archdiocese, the Bishop established this museum to preserve the priceless collections for future generations. There are basically five main sections in the museum and they are classified according to the character of the objects displayed there. These five sections are named as Altar, Procession, Civil Life, Treasure and Cathedral. The museum at present houses some marvelous items that are aesthetically appealing and show the strong influence of the Portuguese style of art. The beautiful sculptures, precious metal artifacts and a piece of an old altar made of teak wood are some of the items that are worth a mention. Also, a sculpture of the Franciscans Coat of Arms is worth mentioning and the museum is definitely worth the visit. One can very proudly say that the Indo-Portuguese Museum is undeniably one of the representatives of the rich legacy of Indo-Portuguese culture and artistic influence.

To our surprise, Kamlesh, the owner himself received us on arrival, accompanied us to Kochi and saw us off on our departure. ...more
