The Church of the Holy Virgin Mary Mother of God at Ankamaly is an ancient church and one of the most prominent in Malankara.

An inscription (in kolezhuth, an ancient script prevalent before Malayalam) on the altar records that the church was re-modelled in AD 776.
Several beautiful paintings adorn the altars, sanctuary and walls, painted in natural dyes. The magnificent murals in the middle of the church depict heaven and hell.
