The local church, San Bartolome Parish, that we have in the heart of Malabon City is very old. In fact, it is about 400 years old. San Bartolome Parish had a very crucial role during the revolution of the Filipinos against the Spaniards. Since the Patron Saint of the church, San Bartolome or St. Bartholomew, was known for having a machete on his hands, the Filipinos then excused themselves of bringing a machete to a festival in honor to him. This allowed Filipinos to travel without raising suspicion on their weapons.
