The Catholic church was built behind the Anglican church of St Mark
The diocese of Badulla was built fairly recently, it dates back to the year 1972. Before that the village had a Catholic community, but it was very small. The Catholic church was built behind the Anglican church of St Mark. It is a fairly basic construction. The interior is simple and humble. The facade has two twin towers, with a steeple, and vitrales classics, in a flower shape. The church is painted yellow but it needs a renewal. The town's main religion is Buddhist, but with colonization, there is also a large group of Catholics.
