St. Francis of Assisi
Dumanjug church is probably the most handsome of the 19th century churches in western Cebu. Made of finely cut coral, its hews closer to the neoclassical idiom for the sedate and chaste simplicity of its decorative elements. The bell tower to one side of the church has a dodecagonal plan, usual for colonial churches. Although made of three stories the floors are unusually high; this is a general characteristic of the church. The engaged pilasters only add to the general sense of height. The facade's lofty elevation is broken only by double pediment.
Established as a parish on 28 March 1854, Dumanjug had as patron Saint Francis of Assisi. It was formerly a visita of Barili. Redondo (1886, 163) describes the Borbon church made of rubble and of new construction, measuring 40.5 fathoms long, 8 fathoms and two palmos wide and 7 fathoms and one palmo tall. The church was cruciform, roofed with tile and bell tower under construction.
Dumanjug Town Plaza
This is the improved Dumanjug town plaza. Visitors swear by how much they enjoy spending time here. There are areas shaded by trees, a small playground for the children and nearby stores that sell refreshments including halo-halo from one stall which is getting some pretty good reviews. Some also say a few laps around the plaza makes for really good exercise. Dumanjug was a stop today during the third day of the Suroy-Suroy Sugbo Southern Heritage Trail.
