Background

The Felix Y. Manalo National Historical Landmark is a 744 square meters (8,010 sq ft) plaza situated in Barangay Calzada in Taguig, Philippines.[1] The site marks the birthplace of Felix Manalo who was born in May 10, 1886 at the time Taguig was still a town that is part of Rizal province.[2] Manalo is widely regarded by non-members as the founder of Iglesia ni Cristo[note 1] who registered the church with the Philippine government in 1914. The area where the landmark stands is believed to be the site of the former ancestral house of Manalo's family.[1]

Manalo's birthplace was proclaimed as a National Historical Landmark by the National Historical Institute on January 6, 1986.[3]
