Church of Our Lady of Lourdes, Ipoh, Perak

Church of Our Lady of Lourdes, Ipoh (9 November, 2015)

Church of Our Lady of Lourdes (GPS: 4.60316, 101.06867) is a Roman Catholic church in the Silibin suburb of Ipoh, Perak. It is located on Jalan Silibin, and is a church for the Indian community.

Church of Our Lady of Lourdes trades its history to the turn of the 20th century, when Roman Catholic missionary, Father L.M. Duvelle initiated the effort to establish a church for the Indian Catholics in the area. A piece of land was purchased in 1902, and the Bishop gave the church the name Church of Our Lady of Lourdes. At that time, they were unaware that the land was prone to flooding, an issue that became apparent once they built the first church building. Floods became a regular occurrence at this church, right up until the present church building was completed in 1959.

About this website

Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
