Loboc Church, Catholic church in Loboc, Philippines.

The limestone church building features a cruciform floor plan with a central dome and five altars decorated with religious statues and paintings.

The present coral stone structure, completed in 1734, replaced earlier wooden churches that were established by Jesuit missionaries between 1596 and 1602.

The interior murals, painted by Canuto Avila and his sons between 1926 and 1927, represent religious scenes and demonstrate Filipino artistic traditions.

Located along the Loboc River, the church requires ongoing restoration work following damage from the 2013 earthquake that affected multiple heritage sites.

The church holds the distinction of being both a National Historical Landmark and a National Cultural Treasure of the Philippines.
