The Immaculate Conception Metropolitan Cathedral is one of the most significant and well-regarded places of worship in Panay, dating back to the 1800s.  The church has been one of the best-known landmarks of Capiz as it serves to show a glimpse into the province's distant past.   

One of the oldest in Panay Island, this church is a silent witness to events that have unfolded in the city over the past centuries. Its imposing view complements the city plaza fronting the Panay River and the Capiz Bridge. Fiesta lights add glitter to the church.
