Description

The house was built in 1845 and probably enlarged or improved in 1849 and in 1920. It is from its porch where Philippine independence from Spain was proclaimed in 12 June 1898. The Americans thought otherwise and colonized the Philippines before finally granting its own version of independence on 4 July 1946. President Diosdado Macapagal later restored June 12 as the Philippine Independence Day celebration and relegated July 4 as Filipino-American Friendship Day. General Aguinaldo's house was declared a national shrine shortly after his death in 1964.
