Meycauayan Church, Catholic church with Baroque architecture in Meycauayan, Philippines.
The Saint Francis of Assisi Parish Church features thick stone walls, ornate altars, and detailed finishes characteristic of Philippine Baroque design elements.
The original church was established in 1578 by Franciscan priests Juan de Plasencia and Diego de Oropeza, who constructed the first structure using nipa thatch and bamboo.
The church holds regular masses and religious celebrations, serving as the principal spiritual center for 80,000 parishioners in the Bulacan region.
Located at coordinates 14.7351, 120.957, the church underwent substantial renovations in 2020 and 2023 to maintain its structural integrity and religious functions.
The church bells, taken during the Philippine-American War, were later recovered and now reside in the Diocesan Museum of Malolos.
