St. Francis Cathedral of Xi'an, Roman Catholic cathedral in Xi'an, China

St. Francis Cathedral is a Roman Catholic church in Xi'an featuring a neo-Romanesque front facade with three arched entrances and decorative brick carvings. The structure blends European architectural elements with Chinese decorative patterns throughout its design.

In 1716 Antonio Laghi, apostolic administrator of Shaanxi, had the Italian missionary Ma Daidi buy land at Tudimiao Shizi and build the church, completed in 1727. Emperor Yongzheng banned Christianity in 1724; the building was confiscated and later sold to three households. Returned in 1866 after French pressure, it was rebuilt in 1883–84 by Bishop Pagnucci and became the cathedral in 1930.

Locals call it Nantang, the "Southern Church", because it stands south of Xi'an's older Catholic church; the government refers to it as Wuxing Street Catholic Church after its address. The cathedral keeps a relic of St. Francis of Assisi and houses the Sisters of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, who run the Yellow River Soup Kitchen on the premises.

The church sits on Wuxing Street and access can be limited during active worship services or religious ceremonies. It helps to check ahead about visiting hours and whether ceremonies are taking place.
