The Franciscan Church (German: Franziskanerkirche) is one of the oldest churches in Salzburg Austria. The church is located on the corner of Franziskanergasse and Sigmund-Haffner-Gasse opposite the Franciscan Friary in the Altstadt section of the city. The first church on this site was erected in the eighth century. Between 1408 and 1450 a Gothic choir replaced the Romanesque choir. A slender Gothic tower was added between 1468 and 1498.
