Msgr. Mar Charles Lavigne

After the establishment of St Berchmans English High School, Changanasserry by Msgr. Fr. Charles Lavigne and clergy of Catholic Church in 1891, he laid the foundation stone of the college in 1895 on seeing the need for institution of higher education in Travancore and Malabar region.[7] The College was established in 1922 by Venerable Mar Thomas Kurialacherry, Bishop of Changanassery diocese with the help of both Catholic Church and Travancore Royal Family.[8] In 1925, the college was transferred to its current place.

SB College was first built on the premises of St Marys Church, Parel in 1922.
Venerable Mar Thomas Kurialacherry

In 1925, the College authorities decided to install the 12 feet tall statue of Christ the King, brought from Spain, on the top of the College Tower, on a 6 feet tall pedestal. The college chapel, built in 1940, was named Christ King's Chapel, after the installation of the statue.[9][10] Today, the college is affiliated to MG University, Kottayam.

In June 2022, the relics of St John Berchmans brought from Italy was placed in the College Chapel, as part of centenary.[11]
