St. Aloysius College Chapel
 

Located on the lighthouse hill, about a kilometer away from the Nehru Maidan Bus stand is the St. Aloysius College Chapel famed for its interior paintings. Built in the year 1899-1900, the chapel has exquisite frescoes covering the walls and the ceilings, which were done by the Italian trained Jesuit priest Antony Moscheni. Around 600 square metres of the walls of the Chapel is covered with the Fresco, while the ceilings are full of oil paintings. The central row on the ceiling exhibits the life of St. Aloysius Gonzaga. The chapel which is situated at the center of the vast St. Aloysius college campus, resembles the Sistine chapel in Rome.
