Wow..that’s our church which I’m proud to say that I’m a Cabatuananons..Through the determination of our past Parish Priests who greatly help to improve and maintain the structural image of the historical church shows the assence of the Christianity of the Cabatuanons. And also the discipline of every individual to keep the church as magnificient as it was. Hope that it will preserve to the next generation…Mabuhay!

GRAND! i have visited this church with a friend when we went to Maasin, we stopped coz history buff din yung mga kasama ko. ang ganda niya talaga pati yung convent panalo rin, kaso we haven’t explore the other facades yung nakaharap lang sa plaza. galing! according to my friend this church is one of the largest in Iloilo and i’ve read in other iloilo website that its the only church in the Philippines na more than one ang facade, european talaga siya kung ganun.

oops didn’t notice the typo there .. it’s WWII not WWIII, lol…

Your lola is right, but sadly you won’t be able to see the old church of Oton because it’s already destroyed. Kanugon gani, it was once a very magnificent structure.

wooow! large indeed! i love brick structures, and i would like to see this one, when i return to Iloilo. There are few old churches here in negros compared to Iloilo..

3 facades? according to my Lola(who hailed from Iloilo) Oton church has four facades… I’ve passed Oton once but failed to see the four-faced Oton church my lola was talking about…

more like 172 years old, not one of the oldest in Iloilo but it\’s one of the biggest. It used to be bigger but some parts were demolished during the earthquake and world war II.

The Cabatuan Church has 3 facades. The first photo is the main facade and the second photo is the facade on the left side of the church.

Glad you like the Cabatuan Church, I like it too.

There\’s a more than a dozen other old churches in Iloilo, if you\’re interested ;)

I like it too … the way it peeps out from the trees when you’re about to enter or leave the towns in a nice sight
