OSLOB- must see Cuartel & Calle Aragones

👣👣Take a historical walk and witness the unfolding of this history by visiting the Cuartel! 👣👣 🌟 Between two of the oldest streets in Oslob, Calle Aeternidad and Calle Aragones, stands the Oslob Cuartel. This well-preserved structure was built in 1860 but remained unfinished at the end of the Spanish occupation in 1898. 🇪🇸Similar to the Nuestra Señora de la Immaculada Conception, it was also made of coral stones. Cuartel is an unfinished structure built during the Spanish colonization made through the effort of El Gran Maestro Don Marcus Sabandal. It was initially planned to house the Spanish army and was supposed to take part in the first line of defense of the Spaniards during the attack of the Moros. The strong edifice of the quarters was made from the nineteen centimeters thick, coral stones of the collapsed bell tower of its nearby church Nuestra Senora dela Immaculada. 🗿Near the bay area is the statue of Father Julian Bermejo, also known by Cebuanos as El Parroco Capitan or El Padre Capitan. He was the one who spearheaded the building of the defense system against moro invaders, which included creating a chain of watchtowers along the bays of several towns in Southern Cebu, starting from Santander all the way to Carcar. 🔝🇵🇭Give yourself at least 2 hours to be able to see everything. If you are into history a must-see. #urbanexplorer #awesomepic #philippines #oslob #walkingtour #tomove_to_fly #explore #historywalk
