Church of Mercy Ruins

The Church of Mercy Ruins is the roofless remains of a 16th-century Portuguese church located inside Diu Fort on the eastern tip of Diu Island. Built for the Portuguese garrison after the fort's construction between 1535 and 1546, the church now stands as weathered stone walls and arches. It is notable as part of the fort complex that reflects Portuguese colonial architecture and is a key heritage attraction within the fort.

Visitors can expect roofless stone ruins with standing walls, arches and remnants of the altar inside the walled Diu Fort complex. The site is open to the sky with rubble flooring and weathered laterite stonework. It is surrounded by fort bastions, ramparts, cannons and sea views. Visitors explore on foot along uneven paths within the fort, with opportunities for sightseeing and photography of the ruins and coastal landscape.
