Great fire of Cochin

Fire outbreak in Kerala, India

The Great fire of Cochin, also known as the Cochin Conflagration, occurred on 4 January 1889 at Fort Kochi in Kerala. The fire originated from a vessel named Chandrabhanu, which was docked in Cochin harbour and laden with highly flammable materials such as coconut oil, copra, coir, carpets, and spices. This catastrophic event has been compared to the Great Fire of London, due to its devastating impact on the city.
