Santo Domingo Cathedral (Basco)
Santo Domingo Church, also known as Basco Cathedral, is a Roman Catholic church located in Basco, Northern Batan Island, Batanes, Philippines. Because Batanes was named ''Provincia de la Concepcion'' in religious records at the time of its establishment, the first church was dedicated to Our Lady of the Immaculate Conception, Patroness of Batanes Prelature.〔Casas, Brigido, Fr.. Prelature of Batanes. Unpublished manuscript.〕 It is speculated that the image of the Immaculate Conception was brought to Batanes during the 1783 expedition.〔 As church, it bears the name Santo Domingo Church, in honor of the Patron Saint of the capital of Batanes, which is Basco.
==History==
With the establishment of Basco town on June 26, 1783, came the evangelical mission headed by Dominican Fathers Bartholome Artiguez and Baltazar Calderon.〔 The first church was built in Basco town and was made of cogon and wood.
Around 1795, due to frequent fires and typhoons that destroyed buildings, stone churches were started to be built, made possible by imported masons, stone cutters, and carpenters from Cagayan.〔 People began to use lime not as just condiment for betel nut chew, but for constructing walls in combination with sand and stone. During this time, construction of the stone church of Basco took place,〔 with Fr. Nicolas Castaño designing the façade in 1812, and the convent in 1814.〔
The church has undergone renovations in response to disasters. It was burned and reconstructed at around 1860 to 1863, and was refurbished in 1950.〔Solemn Blessing of Sto. Domingo Cathedral, Basco, Batanes. Invitation Brochure. March 29, 2012.〕 The church was badly damaged in the earthquake of July, 2000. Under Bishop Jose Salazar, O.P, the cathedral was rebuilt in its original form, which was completed in 2011.〔
