San Agustin Church in Intramuros, Manila

Also known as the Archdiocesan Shrine of Our Lady of Consolation and Cincture/Immaculate Conception Parish of San Agustin, was the first church built on the island of Luzon in 1571, immediately after the Spanish conquest of Manila. A site within the district of Intramuros was assigned to the Augustinian Order, the first to evangelize in the Philippines.
