The rapid and remarkable progress that the Syrian Catholics made under the Indian bishops in the course of a few years was highly appreciated by the Apostolic and as a result, on December 21, 1923 by the bull “Romani Pontifices” of Pope Pius XI, the Syro- Malabar Hierarchy was established, raising Ernakulam to the status of a Metropolitan See and having Trichur, Changanacherry and Kottayam as its suffragan eparchies. Mar Francis Vazhappilly was the Bishop of Trichur. In 1887 the Vicariate of Trichur was bounded on the east by the Western Ghats, on the south by the Periyar (Aluva), on the west by the Arabian Sea and on the north by the river Bharathapuzha.

History: St. Thomas the Apostle according to the Indian tradition landed at Kodungalloor(Cranganore), the capital of the Chera empire in the year 52 A.D. Persians, Greeks andRomans found Kodungalloor an important centre for their trade.

St. Thomas preached the Gospel wherever he went and founded Churches. Theapostolate of St. Thomas was fruitful among the people of Kerala. According to Malabartradition seven Christian communities were formed in seven different places before he wasmartyred in 72 A.D. His body was brought to Mylapore and was buried in holy shrine.

From the 4th century, St. Thomas Christians established relationships with the Churchof Persia. Bishops who came to India from that Church also had their residence atKodungalloor while they held the title of the “Metropolitan and gate of all India”. The‘Metropolitan’ changed his residence from Kodungalloor to Angamaly in the sixteenthcentury due to certain political reasons. After the death of Mar Abraham in 1577, St. ThomasChristians were subjected to the Latin bishop from 1699 and continued to be so until 1887.

H. H. Pope Leo XIII of illustrious memory, by the epoch-making Bull “Quod Jampridem” ofMay 20, 1887, separated the Syrian Catholics of Malabar from the jurisdiction of thePadroado as well as the Vicariate of Verapoly and erected for them Apostolic Vicariates ofTrichur and Kottayam. The Vicariate of Trichur had within its territory Kodungalloor andPalayur, the cradles of Christianity in India. Msgr. Adolph Edwin Medlycott was the firstVicar Apostolic of Trichur.

Nine years later, by the Brief “Quae Rei Sacrae” of July 28, 1896, the same Holy Fatherreorganised the two Vicariates into three: Trichur, Ernakulam and Changanacherry - withIndians of the Syro-Malabar Church, as their Vicars Apostolic. Mar John Menacherrybecame the first native Vicar Apostolic of Trichur.

The rapid and remarkable progress that the Syrian Catholics made under the Indianbishops in the course of a few years was highly appreciated by the Apostolic and as aresult, on December 21, 1923 by the bull “Romani Pontifices” of Pope Pius XI, the Syro-Malabar Hierarchy was established, raising Ernakulam to the status of a Metropolitan Seeand having Trichur, Changanacherry and Kottayam as its suffragan eparchies. Mar FrancisVazhappilly was the Bishop of Trichur.

In 1887 the Vicariate of Trichur was bounded on the east by the Western Ghats, on thesouth by the Periyar (Aluva), on the west by the Arabian Sea and on the north by the riverBharathapuzha. When by “Quae Rei Sacrae” of July 28, 1896 the three Syrian Vicariates

were erected, the river Chalakudy was made the southern boundary of Trichur Vicariate.Pope Pius XII, by the Bull “Saepe Fidelis” of April 29, 1955 extended the jurisdiction of

Trichur Bishop to the whole of the Diocese of Coimbatore. On June 20, 1974 Pope Paul VI bythe “Apostolico Requirente” divided the Eparchy of Trichur, erecting the Eparchy of Palakkadwhich consisted of civil districts of Palakkad and Coimbatore. Again on June 22, 1978 PopePaul VI separated the entire taluk of Kodungalloor, greater part of Mukundapuram and smallportions of Paravur and Aluva to the north of the river Chalakudy, from the Eparchy ofTrichur and erected the Eparchy of Irinjalakuda by the Apostolic Bull “Trichuriensis Eparchiae”.

Pope John Paul II inaugurated the centenary celebrations of the Eparchy of Trichur onFebruary 7, 1986 at St. Thomas Nagar, Trichur, in the presence of about one million people.On May 20, 1987 centenary day was celebrated.

After the erection of Syro-Malabar Major Archepiscopatethe eparchy of Trichur is in the fore-front for the renewal of the Church.
