St. Francis of Assisi Church

St. Francis of Assisi Church is a 16th-century Portuguese-era church located inside Diu Fort in Diu, Dadra and Nagar Haveli and Daman and Diu. Built in 1593 by Franciscan friars, it is one of the oldest churches in Diu. The whitewashed structure exemplifies Portuguese colonial architecture and is now used as St. Francis of Assisi Hospital, situated close to St. Paul's Church and St. Thomas Church Museum.

Visitors can expect to see a historic whitewashed Portuguese church located within the walled complex of Diu Fort. The exterior features simple colonial architecture with arched facades. The building now functions as a hospital and is primarily viewed from the outside. The surroundings include fort walls, other heritage churches, and views of the Arabian Sea. Access is on foot within the fort area.
