Catholic Chikaramachi Church

The church was established in 1888 by the French Catholic missionary Fr.

Augustin Tulpin, thus making it the oldest church in Aichi.

The present chapel was constructed in 1904 in a fusion of Western and Japanese architecture, and underwent various extensions and renovations since then.

As part of the Cultural Path of Nagoya, it is an important historic building of the city.
