Gala-Rodriguez Ancestral House

Residential Buildings

The Gala-Rodriguez house is one of three heritage houses in Sariaya, Quezon, that the National Historical Institute of the Philippines has designated for their historical and cultural significance. It was designed by Juan Nakpil in the early 1930s and was owned by Dr. Isidro Rodriguez and Dona Gregoria Gala, regarded as one of the most distinguished couples in Quezon. The house stands on Rizal Street, alongside other opulent houses built by the illustrados of old Sariaya. Its source article describes the style as Art Deco and gives a completion date of 4 May 1935, which shows the house belongs to the interwar period of Philippine domestic architecture.
