Prinza Dam

Prinza Dam is a gravity dam located in Talon Dos, spanning about 450 meters and rising 10 meters high between Las Piñas and Bacoor. The structure controls water flow for agricultural irrigation across the surrounding fields in both regions.

Spanish colonizers built the Prinza Dam in 1885 to manage water resources and support agriculture across the Philippine territories. The structure was later maintained by Saint Ezekiel Moreno during drought periods.

Local residents call this structure Prinsa ng Molino, linking it to the agricultural heritage of Cavite province. The dam represents generations of farming communities who depended on its water management for their livelihoods.

The dam functions as a pedestrian and vehicle crossing between Las Piñas and Bacoor, offering direct access between the two areas. The best time to visit is during the dry season when water levels are lower and the surroundings are more accessible.

A small park named after Saint Ezekiel Moreno was created in 2010 to honor his work maintaining the dam during difficult periods. The park is often overlooked by visitors but offers a quiet spot with views of the structure for those who find it.
