Artículo de publicación ISISN 1997D in NGC 1536 is possibly the least luminous and energetic Type II supernova discovered to date. The entire light curve is subluminous, never reaching M-v = -14.65. The radioactive tail follows the Co-56 decay slope. In the case of a nearly complete trapping of the gamma-rays, the Ni-56 mass derived from the tail brightness is extremely small, similar to 0.002 M.. At discovery, the spectra showed a red continuum and line velocities on the order of 1000 km s(-1). The luminosity and the photospheric expansion velocity suggest that the explosion occurred about 50 days before discovery and that a plateau probably followed. Model light curves and spectra of the explosion of a 26 M. star successfully fitted the observations. Low-mass models are inconsistent with the observations. The radius of the progenitor, constrained by the prediscovery upper limits, is R-0 less than or similar to 300 R.. A low explosion energy of similar to 4 x 10(50) ergs is then required in the modeling. The strong Pa II lines in the photospheric spectra are reproduced with a solar abundance and low T-eff. A scenario in which the low Ni-56 mass observed in SN 1997D is due to fallback of material onto the collapsed remnant of the explosion of a 25-40 M. star appears to be favored over the case of the explosion of an 8-10 M. star with low Ni-56 production
