St. Francis of Assisi Church ((ドイツ語:Kirche zum heiligen Franz von Assisi)), also known as the Kaiser Jubilee Church ((ドイツ語:Kaiserjubiläumskirche)) and the Mexico Church ((ドイツ語:Mexikokirche)), is a Basilica-style Catholic church in Vienna, Austria. Built between 1898 and 1910, it was consecrated in 1913.〔(''Adolf Loos: The Art of Architecture'' ) by Joseph Masheck (I.B.Tauris, 2013)〕 It is located on the Mexikoplatz in Vienna's Second District, Leopoldstadt,〔(''Vienna's English-speaking Catholic Community has a new home'' ) (Austrian Times, 8 January 2009)〕 and is administered by the Order of the Holy Trinity. ==History== The construction of the church celebrated the 50th anniversary of the reign of Emperor Franz Joseph I of Austria.〔(''Wien-Leopoldstadt'' ) by Josef König & Hans König (Sutton Verlag GmbH, 2003)〕 A competition was held to select the design and was won by architect Victor Luntz. The four-bay, basilica-like brick building was intended as a garrison church; designed in the Rhenish-Romanesque style, its three red-tiled towers are visible several kilometres away. The church, which is directly situated near the Danube, is now home to the Vienna English Speaking Catholic Community (VESCC) who have held weekly masses at the church since moving there in 2009.〔 The Mexikoplatz (Mexico Square), formerly known as Erzherzog-Karl-Platz (Archduke-Karl-Square), commemorates the fact that Mexico was the only country outside the Soviet Union to protest against the Anschluss of Austria to Nazi Germany.
