Parish of the Holy Sacrifice
Parish of the Holy Sacrifice, Modernist Catholic church at University of the Philippines, Philippines
The circular concrete structure features a dome supported by crossed arches and encompasses a central altar surrounded by concentric seating arrangements.
Filipino architect Leandro Locsin designed this church in 1955, with funding from faculty members and students who contributed portions of their salaries and allowances.
The church walls display fifteen murals of the Stations of the Cross created by Vicente Manansala and Ang Kiukok, while Napoleon Abueva crafted the marble altar.
The Parish of the Holy Sacrifice accommodates 1000 people and serves both the university community and public visitors within the Diliman campus of UP.
The National Historical Institute and National Museum designated this structure as both a National Historical Landmark and an Important Cultural Property in 2005.
