Solution:

The Kochi Royals allowed Portuguese to build a fort near the harbour in 1503. They called it Fort Emmanuel. Today the fort is ruined but the area is called Fort Kochi; it is part of the Kochi City. They built the St. Francis church within the enclosed area. Later on, the fort was captured by the Dutch, and eventually, it came under the control of the British.
