Nestled in the vibrant yet tranquil lanes of Fontainhas, Goa’s Latin Quarter, St. Sebastian’s Chapel stands as a serene sanctuary of faith and cultural harmony. Built in the 19th century, this sacred space is renowned for its striking white facade and the revered crucifix inside, which locals believe miraculously shielded the area from a cholera epidemic. Visitors are welcomed into an atmosphere of profound peace, where the blend of Portuguese and Goan heritage is palpable. As an active place of worship, silence and respectful attire are requested. Located at FRWJ+F8M, Altinho, Panaji, the chapel is best visited during morning or late afternoon masses to experience its spiritual essence.
