brick. Sa kasamaang palad, noong 1743 isang malakas na lindol ang sumira sa simbahan. Sa paglipas ng

mga taon, ang Basilica ay inayos nang maraming beses, idinagdag sa, at binago.

Gayunpaman, sa kabila ng lahat ng kasaysayang iyon, nananatili itong isa sa mga pinakakaakit-akit na

pagpapahusay habang pinapanatili ang artistikong kagandahan ng altar nito. Ang mga karagdagang

gusali, tulad ng Obispo Alfredo Ma. Ang Obviar Building at ang Edificio de San Fernando Building, ay

idinagdag sa complex. Noong Hulyo 2012, naganap sa Edificio de San Fernando Building ang isang mini-

concert na nagtatampok sa international singer/songwriter na si David Pomeranz.

pinapayagang gumamit ng ganitong paraan dahil sa matarik na grado nito. Noong 1934 ang kagubatan

ay idineklara bilang isang National Park. Ang ilan sa mga kagiliw-giliw na tampok ng parke ay ang

masalimuot na sistema ng mga kuweba, bangin, mayayabong na mga gulay, bukal pati na rin ang mga

Toledo, who is the special protector of the town of Tanay.

During a big war called the Philippine Revolution, the church became a safe place for Filipino soldiers
fighting for their country. It was a very important place for the people in the town and witnessed many
important events.

Sadly, during World War II, the church was badly damaged by bombs dropped by Japanese soldiers.
Most of the original building was destroyed, but some parts, like the stone walls, remained.

After the war, people worked hard to fix and rebuild the church. It took a few years, but they were able
to make it look beautiful again, with some changes to the design

parish office, candle gallery, pilgrims' center, rosary garden, and restrooms.

According to local folklore, in the 1600s, a farmer witnessed the Blessed Mother's apparition in a
heavenly light. She indicated the location where she desired her church to be built. The townspeople
constructed a small church in response. Another notable event involved a dead infant being revived
upon being placed on the church's altar. Over time, stories of miraculous healings spread, making Our
Lady of Manaoag a patroness for the sick and those in need.

The church endured bombings during World War II and survived an earthquake in 1982. A bomb
allegedly pierced the church's roof but miraculously failed to detonate. In 2014, it was granted the title
of Minor Basilica by Pope Francis, and the following year, it was declared a National Cultural Treasure by
the National Museum of the Philippines.
