Saint Rose of Lima Parish Church, also known as Gamu Church, is a Roman Catholic church located in Gamu, Isabela, Philippines.
The church was constructed around 1750 by Martin Fernández, a priest who also made the town planning for Gamu. [1] The Baroque-styled church's distinct feature is its facade's pointed towers. The church has a life-size image of the Peruvian nun Rose of Lima, the patron saint of embroidery, gardening, and cultivation of blooming flowers. [2]
The National Museum of the Philippines declared the church as a national cultural property in 2019. [3]
