Miag-ao Church, Iloilo
The Miag-ao Church was built in 1786 by Spanish Augustinian missionaries and was declared as part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site "Baroque Churches of the Philippines" in 1993. The church and its watchtowers were also built to defend the town and its people against raids by the Moros. It has thick walls with secret passages that it is sometimes referred to as the Miag-ao Fortress Church.
