While travelling from Kochi towards the east, the church is seen on the north side of the road 2 kilometres (1.2 mi) beyond the Kolenchery Medical College Junction.

It is believed that Mar Abo, a Persian high priest established the church with the help of Kartha, the then local ruler of Kadamattom.

[2] The tomb of Mar Thoma IX (formerly Pakalomattom Iype Kathanar) lies on the left side just outside the Madbaha or altar room.

A 9th-century stone Persian cross with four equal-size arms sits on the right wall of the Madbaha or altar room.
