Located in Idaikattur (Tamil Nadu) the Shrine of Sacred Heart, const in
1894 CE by a French missionary, is an imitation of the Rheims Cathedral
of France, upon the wishes of the donor. Despite that the church has
some unique features which include statues of 153 angels which adorn the
exterior of the structure. The reasoning behind placing the angels is
because of a dream (seen by a presiding judge who was deciding upon a
litigation regarding the church) who saw that the church was being built
by angels !
