Rizal's main Roman Catholic church, built during the Spanish era in 1617 in a baroque style using stones quarried from the Matalag River. It was declared a national cultural treasure by the Philippine government in 2001 on account of its age and dual function as a fortress against raids by Kalingas and Isnegs from Apayao.
