Revisited the very imposing bahay na bato of the Luz-Bautista family along P. Torres/Lipa-Rosario road. It is one of the few examples of late 19th-century Lipeño homes that survived the destruction of WWII. *Photo by Renz Katigbak* #bahaynabato #lipacity #philippineancestralhouses #philippines

As one of the pioneer Filipino engineers, José Petronio M. Katigbak was involved in the early years of Philippine nation-building but his early demise cut short his valuable services to the country.

Without the capture of Villa de Lipa, the revolutionary expeditions of liberating other towns in the South from the Spanish forces would have been greatly delayed.
