About Church of St Francis Xavier

This twin-spired neo-Gothic church was built from 1849 to 1856 by French missionaries on the site of an earlier Portuguese church, and is said to be modelled on St Peter's Cathedral in Montpellier. It is the largest church in Melaka.

Stained glass above the altar shows the life of St Francis Xavier, who preached in Melaka in the 16th century. It is about two minutes on foot from Dutch Square.
