Manuel Roxas Ancestral House

Birthplace of Manuel Roxas (Roxas City) Located in the city proper, corner Rizal and Zamora Streets, Roxas City, Philippines. A two-story hardwood and stone house of First Philippine President Manuel Roxas, now a historical shrine. 

It was well preserved by Atty. Mike Albar, a cousin of President Manuel Roxas. Hopefully his daughter, Emily will continue to carry on the tradition to allow people to see the historical house.
