About Minor Basilica of the Black Nazarene (Quiapo Church)

The Minor Basilica of the Black Nazarene or simply known as Quiapo Church (St. John the Baptist Parish) was called by His Eminence Gaudencio Cardinal Rosales, D.D. (Archbishop Emeritus of Manila) as the Premium Church of Asia. The biggest celebration every January 9 is The Feast of the Black Nazarene which commemorates the TRASLACION or the transfer of the Christian image from its original location at a church in modern-day Luneta Park to Quiapo. The image was brought to the Church of San Juan Bautista in Bagumbayan (now Luneta) until May 31, 1606 by Augustinian Recollect priest and in 1608, the icon was enshrined at the Recollect church of San Nicolas de Tolentino in Intramuros. It was moved to the St. John the Baptist Church which is now commonly referred to as the Quiapo Church.
