The Malolos Cathedral is one of the historical churches in the Philippines, located in Bulacan. Construction started in 1814 and was finished in 1817, under Fray. Melchor Fernández. Like most of the century-old churches in the country, this Cathedral was severely damaged by earthquakes. Today, it is the seat of the Diocese of Malolos and has been the bastion of faith for centuries.

On the left side of the church's facade is a centuries-old tree that serves as a living witness to many historic events that have transpired in this hallowed plaza. It was planted by President Aguinaldo during a lull in the historic Malolos Convention, when General Emilio Aguinaldo y Famy used this cathedral's convent as Palacio Presidencial from September 10, 1898, to March 29, 1899, conducting many affairs of state under the shade of this tree. Beside the bell tower of this historical structure is the tower of bells—bells that attract attention due to their design, numbers, and brilliant gold color.
