La Loma Cemetery

The La Loma Catholic Cemetery was opened in 1884 and is largely located in Caloocan, Metro Manila. A portion of the southern part of the cemetery is located in Manila.

The La Loma Cemetery is the oldest cemetery in Manila with an area of slightly less than 54 hectares. It was opened in 1884 and was originally known as Cementerio de Binondo as the area was then under the jurisdiction of Santa Cruz during the Spanish Colonial Period.Spanish officials warned Filipino rebels that once they joined the uprising, they can no longer be buried in Catholic cemeteries on the consecrated ground like La Loma and thus denied of what then was considered a "decent" burial in their time of death.
