St. Alex Church

About this place

St. Alex Church is a calm heritage stop near the beach belt—white façade, peaceful interiors, and a local community feel that’s very different from the beach crowd. It’s ideal for visitors who enjoy architecture, old churches, and quiet spaces where you can observe Goa’s cultural layers beyond parties and shorelines. The experience feels personal: you can sense it as an active parish space, not just a monument, with a timeless, old-Goa atmosphere.

History & highlights

The present church structure was built in 1741 by the village community, and the twin towers were later erected in 1765, showing how the site grew in phases as the parish expanded. Its long continuity reflects Goa’s historic church-building era and the way local communities funded and maintained important religious landmarks.
