Gapan City Ancestral Houses

Part of our mapping activities last year with our team at the Philippine Heritage Map www.philippineheritagemap.org is the city of Gapan in Nueva Ecija. I was surprised at the number of old houses around the Church of Divina Pastora. Some of these houses were in good condition but the majority needs intervention now to prevent further deterioration of the old houses.

The Gapan Old Casa Municipal is currently being restored by the National Historical Commission of the Philippines (NHCP) and I’m hoping to visit it again once it is opened to the public. I hope the NHCP will get more funding to restore memorable buildings like this one.

Take a look at these pictures of Gapan City Ancestral Houses.
