    History

    The Church of Our Lady of Piety dates back to the Portuguese colonial era in Dadra and Nagar Haveli. Constructed during their rule, it served as a central place of worship for the local Christian community and Portuguese settlers. The church witnessed the transition of power as the region eventually integrated into India. Over the years, it has been maintained and preserved, standing as a symbol of the region's diverse history and cultural exchange. While detailed records of its exact construction date and specific historical events may be limited, the church remains a tangible link to the past, offering insights into the religious and social life of the era. It's a testament to the enduring legacy of the Portuguese presence in this part of India.
