Summary
| Description | Our final halt for the day was the The Church of Our Lady of the Immaculate Conception in Baclayon, Bohol. This church is more commonly referred to as the Baclayon Church. This site was formally founded by Fr. Juan de Torres and Fr. Gabriel Sanchez of the Jesuit order on November 17 1596, making it the oldest church in Bohol and one of the oldest in the Philippines. But it was in 1727 that the present building was erected by around 200 forced laborers who harvested coral stones from the sea. Although Jesuit-built, it was the Augustinian Recollects who installed a more modern facade to the church in the 19th century. This is the bell tower of the Baclayon church. The venerated Padre Pio, later Saint Pio, was associated with this church. More notes on him later. Baclayon church is noted for its 'miracle images' appearing on its walls. At the centre of this picture, next to the two windows is what is believed by devotees to be the miracle image of Padre Pio. Closer views appear later in this set.
