Naga Heritage Watch
Naga formerly Ciudad de Nueva Caceres For hundreds of years, Naga has been the center of trade, education and culture, and the seat of governmental and ecclesiastical jurisdiction in Bicol. Naga, formerly known as Ciudad de Nueva Caceres, is one of the seven original royal cities founded in 1575 by Spain. It got its name from the Narra tree, although some local historians now believe the term naga came from a similar word found in the languages in Borneo, meaning "serpent/dragon". image hosted on flickr

San Francisco Church
image hosted on flickr
 image hosted on flickr  image hosted on flickr  image hosted on flickr  The church and parish of San Francisco antedated the erection of the Diocese of Caceres in 1595 by nearly two decades. Originally of bamboo and other light materials, the church was built in this present site on a north-south orientation. Its puerta mayor faced its parish, the pre-colonial pueblo of Naga which lay across the Naga River that at that time curved from its southerly course to a westerly direction before winding southward again alongside present-day Elias Angeles Street. By the middle of the 17th century, a church of bricks and lime had been constructed. Nearly two centuries later, San Francisco lost a portion of its parish when the river, straightened to its present course to mitigate flooding in Nueva Caceres, established the new boundary between native Naga and the Ciudad de Espaņoles. The two were connected about a decade afterwards by the new Puente de Naga, but the new boundary later precipitated an ecclesiastical controversy that contributed to the death of Fr. Gabril Prieto and Fr. Severino Diaz. In the mass arrests of September 1896, the infirmary and basement of the San Francisco parish house were used for the interrogation and torture of some of those arrested from Nueva Caceres to as far as Libmanan. Among the detainees were Mateo Antero, Leon Hernandez (who was transferred to the provincial jail where he died from more torture), Camilo Jacob (transferred to the Casino Espaņol), Eugenio Ocampo, Severo Patrocinio, Pablo Perpetua (later also taken to the provincial jail), Celedonio Reyes, Juan Razonable, and Vicente Ursua. The infirmary, convento, and the church itself became the refuge of some 500 men, women and children when the Filipino Guardia Civil contingent led by corporals Elias Angeles and Felix Plazo rose up in arms against the colonial government towards midnight of 18 September 1896. Following another attack by the Angeles-Plazo forces the next day, Civil Governor sent a letter from San Francisco offering to surrender the Province of Ambos Camarines to the Filipinos. In the afternoon of 19 September, a delegation of Spaniards signed the protocol of surrender in the Colegio de Santa Isabel, which became the seat of the new Filipino government of the province formed by Elias Angeles that same day. Reduced to rubble by the heavy bombing of Naga in World War II, the church remained in ruins until the present new edifice was constructed. |
