Sister City Theme - Goa - Church of Imaculate Conception in Panjim
Church of the Imaculate Conception(Iglesia de la Concepcion Inmaculada), Panjim, Goa
This was one of the first to be built in Goa, by 1541. The early church was completely re-built from its foundations in 1619 and this was even considered, taking account of the still negligible population of the area and the size of the new church, is a striking commentary on the religious climate of the time and the wealth available to the churches.
