In 1846, the main vault of the Church collapsed followed by the

Road opp Se Cathedral
When young and when there was less education, we were told the statue is of
Fishermen's King (Hari Raza) and that one had to go underneath him (Hari-Raza ghe ganddintulean)in order to go to Divar Island via canoe boat (now ferry).
Restored by then Portuguese Goa Governor Francisco da Gama (1600) in memory
of his Great Grand Father Vasco da Gama who discovered Sea route to India from Europe.
