Casa Hidalgo, Colonial residence in Bagac, Philippines

Casa Hidalgo exhibits Spanish colonial architecture with a stone ground floor, hardwood second floor, and grand ionic columns throughout the structure.

Built in 1867 as the Rafael Enriquez House in Quiapo, Manila, the building was relocated to Bagac in the early 2000s for preservation purposes.

Rafael Enriquez, the original owner, directed the School of Fine Arts at the University of the Philippines and educated notable Filipino artists until 1926.

The building stands among other historic structures in Las Casas Filipinas de Acuzar, offering visitors insights into Philippine architectural heritage.

The restoration project required detailed analysis of remaining elements as original architectural plans were not available for reference.
