Pinaglabanan Shrine

Pinaglabanan Shrine is located on N. Domingo corner Pinaglabanan Street in the city of San Juan, Metro Manila, Philippines. The shrine has a statue of a woman supported by two children, holding up a bolo, or a machete. This was built to commemorate the opening salvo of the 1896 Philippine Revolution, when the Katipuneros lay siege to an arms storage facility, called the almacen, that belonged to the Spanish Colonial Government. It is this statue that is depicted on the city's seal.

Famous quotes containing the word shrine:

    The United Nations cannot do anything, and never could; it is not an animate entity or agent. It is a place, a stage, a forum and a shrine ... a place to which powerful people can repair when they are fearful about the course on which their own rhetoric seems to be propelling them.
    Conor Cruise O’Brien (b. 1917)
