BUKIDNON, BukidWOW! #1
CHURCH OF THE TRANSFIGURATION OF THE LORD, at the Monastery of the Transfiguration, Bgy. San Jose, Malaybalay City, Bukidnon.
The Monastery was founded by Fr. Abbot Eduardo Africa, OSB and is run by the Benedictine Monks. Opened in 1885 by Spanish Benedictine monks for missionary work, but the mission was aborted when the Philippine Revolution and the Philippine-American War broke out.
It was re-established by the abbey, and the Monastery of the Transfiguration was inaugurated in 1986.
The pyramid-like structure was designed by the late National Artist for Architecture Leandro Locsin and was one of his last.
