The Spanish-colonial-era church was declared an National Cultural Treasure by the National Museum of the Philippines and the National Commission for Culture and the Arts. It is one of the largest church in Pangasinan.  


As one of the baroque churches in the Philippines, the Parish Church of Saints Peter and Paul has been at the forefront of the Philippine history - Spanish colonial rule. Its unique architectural design reflects the Spanish and Latin American architecture integration of indigenous Philippine works of art with Chinese fusion.
