"Manuel Roxas Ancestral House"


The late president, Manuel Roxas, is one of Capiz's most beloved and outstanding sons, and the people of province has made sure to keep his memory alive as one of the greatest historical figures in Philippine history.

It was in Capiz that the fifth president of the Philippines was born. Located in the city proper, the two-storey hardwood and stone house of President Manuel Acuña Roxas is now a historical shrine.


The house of the late president, Manuel Roxas, is declared a national historical sitess. It is the oldest house in Roxas City and is still in the good condition despite the passage of time. It has survived the destruction of World War II. The house has undergone several renovations to its structure.  The management of the house is still in the hands of Roxas’ relatives. Furniture and some of the memorabilia of the president can be found in the house.
