Located on Yefet Street in Jaffa, the southwestern district of Tel Aviv, Saint Anthony of Padua Church stands as a notable Gothic Revival structure completed in 1932. The building takes its name from Saint Anthony of Padua, a Portuguese Franciscan priest and theologian venerated as a Doctor of the Church. The church's distinctive architectural character is defined by its Gothic Revival style and prominent clock tower. Originally serving the local Catholic community, the church now primarily ministers to foreign workers, particularly from the Philippines, alongside its longstanding congregation. Religious services are conducted in Arabic and English. The Terra Sancta high school occupies the adjoining site on the church's north side.
