സി.എസ്.ഐ. ക്രൈസ്റ്റ് ചർച്ച്
An English-style stone Anglican church completed in 1910. The cemetery holds the early tea planters of Munnar.
Funded by British tea planters, the church was completed in 1910. Its grey stone walls, pointed-arch windows and stained glass preserve Victorian-era style. In the cemetery on the hill behind the church, the earliest burial was that of Eleanor Knox (1894), the wife of a tea estate manager, and it is said she chose this hillside herself. The church is near the town center. You can view the exterior on weekdays, but opening hours for the interior are irregular.
