Veeralur is a small village located at the west of the Thiruvannamalai District in Tamil Nadu, South India. It is one of the 150 Villages of the Kalasapakkam Union of Polur Taluk. This tiny village is located at the foot of the hills, which is known as “Paruvathamalai”. It is the border of the Kalasapakkam taluk and is surrounded by the hills. This is the last station for the bus transport, which operates between Polur and Veeralur and also between Thiruvannamalai (District head-quarters) and Veeralur.

Veeralur has been a Salesian parish since 1969 which was entrusted to a zealous Italian missionary, Rev.Fr. Venantius Villanova SDB, who was the first parish priest of St. Anthony’s church, Veeralur, after it was bifurcated from the Sacred Heart Church, Polur. He laboured for 18 years evangelizing the people and nurturing the Catholic faith thus creating over 15 Christian Communities in this area.
