Santuario de San Antonio
Forbes ParkAbout
The Franciscans built Santuario de San Antonio after their mother church in Intramuros was destroyed in the closing days of World War II. To their new santuario, or sanctuary, they brought a statue of Saint Anthony that had survived the bombing of their old beloved church. This lovely church is where most of the christenings, weddings and funerals of Manila's wealthy families, many of whom reside in adjoining Forbes Park and Dasmarinas Village, are conducted.
