Capela de São Francisco Xavier, Catholic chapel in Coloane Village, Macau
The white and cream chapel features oval windows, a bell tower, and a main nave with two side chambers in southwestern Coloane.
The chapel, constructed in 1928 under Bishop José da Costa Nunes, previously stored remains of Catholic priests executed in Nagasaki in 1597.
The interior displays an image of Saint Francis Xavier and a Chinese interpretation of the Virgin Mary, representing East-West religious connections.
Visitors can reach the chapel using bus routes 15, 21A, 25, 26, 26A, 50, or N3, stopping at Villa De Coloane stations.
A memorial stone decorated with cannon balls and iron chains stands in front of the chapel, marking the 1910 Portuguese victory over pirates.
