The Church of St. Francis Xavier ({{lang-ms|Gereja St. Francis Xavier}}) is a church in Malacca City, Malacca, Malaysia.[1]

History

The church was built in 1849 on the site of an old Portuguese church by a French priest, Father Farvé. The finishing touches of the building were completed in 1856 by Father Allard, with the present-day presbytery built in 1874.[2]

Architecture

The church is a twin-spired neo-gothic structure. It is believed that the church was modeled after the Cathedral of St. Peter in Montpellier, Southern France, which closely followed the older church’s original construction, except for a portico which was added on in 1963.[3]
