A Must Tell Miracle-filled Parish

One of the well-known churches in remembered for its red and golden color in Cavite, Saint Gregory Parish Church, was built under the inspiration of Saint Gregory The Great, who was held patron saint of Indang after the town separated from Silang, Cavite in 1625. It is the only church in Cavite that has a hand-painted polychromatic trompe l'oeil, an art technique which was used involving realistic imagery to create optical illusions that view an object to exist in three dimensions, 18th century architecture and the very ancient convent with windows wide and well-wrought iron on its sides. A miraculous history wraps this parish as it was believed that the Statue of Saint Gregory manifested an extraordinary event which made the people of Indang believe that miracles are tangible experiences which really happen and it is something to be greatly proud of.

The church was also known for its seven magical archangels who guarded this stone church from the colonizers during the time of the Spaniards and it attributes to the miracles performed by Saint Gregory. One time, someone found behind the church a burnt painting together with trash which appeared seven people. People believed that these were the seven archangels.
