Rizal Shrine, Historical museum in Calamba, Philippines
The Rizal Shrine features a two-story Spanish colonial structure with hardwood floors, capiz shell windows, and traditional red ceramic roof tiles.
The original house, built in 1861 by Francisco Rizal Mercado, was confiscated by Spanish authorities in 1891 and later destroyed during World War II.
The museum displays artifacts, letters, and manuscripts that illustrate the life of Jose Rizal, who shaped Philippine literature through his novels.
The museum stands near Calamba town plaza, maintains regular visiting hours, and includes six galleries presenting different periods of Rizal's life.
Filipino schoolchildren funded the reconstruction of this national landmark in 1949, following Executive Order No. 145 by President Elpidio Quirino.
