Churches/Shrines
Located at Sta.Lucia, Sasmuan Pampanga. The Santa Lucia Parish Church in Sasmuan is the first church in the province built by Augustinian priests. The heritage church stands right beside the Rio Grande, the ancient waterway that connected Pampanga to Manila and to the rest of the world. The structure is said to have been built by Fr. Jose Duque in the 17th century. It was rebuilt in early 1800 and was reinforced by Fr. Toribio Fanjul in 1884.
The edifice has an interesting and unique façade. It has decorative floral carvings on its main entrance. The old town church is one of the few, if not the only church in the country where the single belfry is situated between the church and the convento. The church, which measures 45 metres (148 ft) long, 11 metres (36 ft) wide, and 6 metres (20 ft) high, also features a grotto of Our Lady of Fatima. Devotees from all over the province flock here to honor Saint Lucy, believed to be a miraculous saint.
Founded in 1590, Santa Lucia is a parish of the Vicariate of St. Joseph in the Archdiocese of San Fernando. The parish celebrates the feast day of its titular patron on December 13.
An author described it as “very beautiful and of very good condition.” When looking at the complex of church and convent, one is stuck by the impression that the round and rectangular openings are capriciously aligned. This makes the façade both interesting and unique.
It was renovated in 2003 under Fr. Teodro P. Valencia, Parish Priest. On June 9, 2007, it was solemnly rededicated
