Religion, Churches, Interesting Places, Other Churches

Sant Francesc Xavier és una església fortalesa situada a Sant Francesc de Formentera, capital de l'illa de Formentera, i dedicada a Sant Francesc Xavier. És una de les tres esglésies parroquials de Formentera –juntament amb la de Sant Ferran de ses Roques i la del Pilar de la Mola.

L'església té elements arquitectònics de les fortaleses com murs cecs alts i gruixuts, una porta ferrada, una coberta amb volta de canó per tal de suportar l'artilleria enemiga. L'any 2004 la façana va ser pintada de blanc, la qual cosa va generar força polèmica.
