San Francisco Church of Intramuros, Franciscan church in Intramuros, Philippines
The San Francisco Church stood at the intersection of San Francisco and Solana Streets, featuring a facade with Ionic and Corinthian columns.
Built in 1578 with bamboo and nipa materials, the church underwent multiple reconstructions due to fires and earthquakes until its final destruction in 1945.
The church functioned as the primary center for Franciscan missions throughout the Philippines, spreading religious education and practices across the archipelago.
The former location of the San Francisco Church now houses the Mapua Institute of Technology, an educational institution in Manila.
The statue of Saint Anthony of Padua survived the World War II bombardment and relocated to Santuario de San Antonio in Forbes Park, Makati.
