St Francis' Church is an Australian Roman Catholic church located on the corner of Lonsdale and Elizabeth streets in Melbourne, Victoria. It is the oldest Catholic church in Victoria.
The main body of the church (with various later additions) is one of very few buildings in central Melbourne which were built before the Victorian gold rush of 1851.
