Magalang, Provincial administrative center in Pampanga, Philippines

The municipality extends over 97 square kilometers at the foot of Mount Arayat, containing 27 distinct administrative districts called barangays.

Established by Augustinian missionaries in 1605, Magalang relocated multiple times due to floods before settling at its current location in 1863.

San Bartolome Parish Church stands as the central religious structure, serving the predominantly Catholic population of 124,188 residents since its foundation.

The Pampanga State Agricultural University maintains extensive research facilities and educational programs focused on agricultural development and technological advancement.

The municipality preserves ancient heliograph towers from 1863, which functioned as military communication stations during the Spanish colonial period.
