Short Description
"The Tranquebar Mission (Danish: Trankebarmissionen; Tamil: தரங்கம்பாடி மிஷன்) was established in 1706 by two German missionaries from Halle, Bartholomäus Ziegenbalg and Heinrich Plütschau. Ziegenbalg and Plütschau responded to the appeal of King Frederick IV of Denmark to establish a mission for the natives living in the Danish East India Company colony of Tranquebar. The mission was responsible for the printing and publication of the Bible in the Tamil language. In 2006, the 300 years anniversary of the mission was celebrated by the Tamil Evangelical Lutheran Church (TELC), with many international delegates in attendance. A monument to acknowledge 300 years of the mission was raised by the TELC on this occasion." - (en.wikipedia.org 29.01.2020)
