Another Capiz best tourist
attraction that Dumalag captivate is the Dumalag Parish Church under the Patron
St. of Saint Martin de Tours. The first church and convent of Dumalag were
constructed between 1600 and 1720, and the parish was dedicated to Saint Martin
of Tour, a bishop. The church had a five story bell tower which rose
majestically at the left side of the church.
Considered as one of the Capiz best
churches, made of yellow sandstone; it is 200 feet long and 50 feet wide. It has
two doors at its side and one main doorway in front. There are six windows at
each side with columns between them reaching to the roof. These are also small
buttresses at the sides. The façade is decorated with small columns.
