St Francis Xavier Church, Enkhuizen, Roman Catholic parish church in Enkhuizen, Netherlands.

The St Francis Xavier Church features Gothic Revival architecture with pointed arches, ribbed vaults, and a tower designed by Nicolaas Molenaar Jr in 1929.

The current church structure, completed in 1905, replaced a former clandestine Jesuit church that remained hidden from street view in previous centuries.

The church interior contains an 18th-century oak baptismal font depicting Adam and Eve's expulsion from Eden, along with angels holding symbolic items.

Located at Westerstraat 107 in Enkhuizen, the church underwent substantial restoration work in 1991 to address structural concerns with its tower.

The building displays a Gothic Revival Marian altar and painted diagonal rib vaulting, with a crucifixion scene positioned above the main entrance.
