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.

Before renaming it CM Recto Avenue, our main street in the city center was officially named "Calle del 18 de Junio" to memorialize this epic event in our city's history. 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.

A blessed and meaningful Holy Week Lipeños. The Señor Santo Entierro in the silver calandra, originally owned by gobernadorcillo Don Lino Katigbak, has been the highlight of the Good Friday procession in Lipa since the late 19th century. #santoentierrolipa #santoentierro #semanasanta #lipacity #lipacathedral #viernessanto #goodfriday
