Museo nina Marcela Mariño at Felipe Agoncillo

An ancient house that was well taken care of!

Free entrance. This museum was donated by the descendants of Marcela Marino Agoncillo to the government. The place is well maintained and the guard/tour guide are friendly and accommodating. Found it really amusing that the security guard is also the tour guide.

old house in taal Batangas ang also a historical place

Very interesting great house to see!

We received a warm welcome from the security guard who turned on the air conditioning and all the lights even though only my mom and I were initially the guests and it's near closing time, too. We also learned a lot from him as he also served as our guide. I love the home of Lola Celay, it perfectly symbolizes her simplicity and humility above her skill and creativity. She and her husband Don Felipe's contribution to the Philippine Independence is not one of bloodshed and warfare but it is an EQUALLY GREAT sacrifice that many of us today can relate to better than the warriors and politicians. They were simple folk who loved their Motherland and gave up the pleasures, luxury and comfort of being wealthy to reach out to fellow Filipinos and defended the rights of the downtrodden and oppressed. Notwithstanding it's majestic wonders of nature, Taal is also made memorable and heartwarming by its history and the Taaleños who were part of them that you will fall in love with the town more and more with every visit. #MabuhaykaLolaCelay #MabuhaykaDonFelipe
