St. Francis Church

Kochi, India

St. Francis Church — places to visit in Kochi
St. Francis Church in Kochi — view 2
St. Francis Church is a 16th-century structure in Fort Kochi, notable for being the first European church in India. Originally built by Portuguese colonists, its simple yet elegant design features a wooden ceiling and later additions over centuries, including the tomb of Vasco da Gama, who was initially buried here. A visit typically includes a quiet moment in the serene interior, with stained glass windows casting colourful light. Mornings see fewer tourists, making it a peaceful time to explore. Nearby, you can also visit the historic Bastion Bungalow and the picturesque shore, extending a leisurely walk along the coastline.
