San Thome Church, also known as St. Thomas Cathedral Basilica and National Shrine of Saint Thomas, is a Roman Catholic minor basilica in Santhome, in the city of Chennai (Madras), India.

The word Santhome or San Thome is derived from saint thomas. The tradition is that he was martyred in A.D.72 at st.thomas mount in the city, and was interred in Mylpore

In 1893, it was rebuilt as a church with the status of a cathedral by the British. The British version still stands today. It was designed in Neo-Gothic style, favoured by British architects in the late 19th century.
