The church of San Francesco is a church located in Mirandola, in the province of Modena, Italy.

Almost completely destroyed by the 2012 Emilia earthquake, it was one of the first Franciscan churches built in Emilia by the Order of Friars Minor, constructed shortly after the canonisation of St. Francis of Assisi in 1228. Inside it was the ''Pantheon'' of the House of Pico della Mirandola.
