St. Francis Xavier Church, Melaka State, Malaysia
4.0 (396 reviews) Spent Ranking #19 in Melaka State Religious Sites • Monuments & Statues
Beautiful Historical Church
The church is looking good after some exterior paintwork and can't be missed in it's location set back a little on Jln Banda Kaba. The interior is very pretty though with a simple but nicely painted ceiling, and some very lovely stained glass windows. quiet and peaceful inside. You won't regret stopping by for a short visit.

St. Francis Xavier - important historical figure, church closed both days we tried to visit
St. Francis Xavier is an important historical missionary figure who spent much of his live spreading the gospel and tending to the pour in South Asia, SE Asia and Japan. He made several stops in Melaka during the period of the Portuguese rule and was buried here for a time, at what was called St. Paul church on top of St. Paul church at that time. This church is named after St. Francis Xavier which made it one of interest for us to visit during a recent trip to Melaka. Unfortunately, there was much construction taking place around the church and it was gated off. As such, it seems it may be under restoration or renovation at the time of our visit. We'll try again next time we pass through Melaka.
