The hills, the green trees and bush-laden hills, the sparkling waterfalls – all are there to spellbind you to the core. The Kunkuri Cathedral, Jashpur, however, has tremendous appeal of its own as a sheer tourist spot as well as a religious site.
Sited at a distance of approximately 40 km from Jashpur Nagar, the Kunkuri Cathedral, Jashpur was erected in 1962 during the era of Late Rev Bishop Stanislas Tigga. Its construction was started by Br. Joseph Toppo and completed by Fr. Manustain S.J during the time of Late Rev. Bishop Francis Ekka.
Once you are at the site of the cathedral, a beautiful shrine of Mother Mary welcomes you into the church. With the seven arcades and many arches, the Kunkuri Cathedral, Jashpur is one of the finest of its type.
