St. Paul’s Church is a popular landmark in Diu and garners the attention of both locals as well as tourists. The church is dedicated to Our Lady of Immaculate Conception. The construction of the church took nearly ten years and is in the Gothic architectural style.
The church is interior with wood panelling that is considered to be the best in all of Diu. The Portuguese influence on the church is clearly evident in the wall paintings in the church.Its construction was completed in 1601 AD. Sharing close similarity with the Basilica of Bom Jesus at Goa, the church mesmerizes with the exquisite work. Sitting in utmost silence in the heavenly beautiful church lit up by lights is surely a soul-soothing experience.
