Old Saint John' Cathedral
Old Saint John' Cathedral
The Augustinians built the early parochial buildings that were razed by fire during Andres Malong’s revolt in 1660. The Dominicans took over in 1713. Fr. Pedro Rama (OP) initiated building the present church in 1816. The façade of the church was destroyed during the earthquake of 1892 and was rebuilt under the supervision of Fr. Vicente Istegui (OP) in 1895. It has been extensively renovated since then.
It was in the old cathedral on Zamora Street, Dagupan, where the Spanish General
Caballos surrendered to the Filipino military strategist, General Francisco
Makabulos during the Philippine Revolution.
