St. John the Baptist Parish Church

St. John the Baptist Parish Church is a 19th-century Roman Catholic church in Jimenez, Misamis Occidental, Philippines. Built from coral stone by Augustinian Recollects between 1862 and the 1880s, it is one of the best-preserved Baroque churches in Mindanao. Declared a National Cultural Treasure in 2001, it is noted for its massive facade, original ceiling paintings, and heritage pipe organ, serving as both an active parish and major heritage landmark.

Visitors can expect a large coral-stone Baroque church in the town center of Jimenez facing the plaza. The exterior features a massive facade and bell tower, while the interior reveals high wooden ceilings with preserved paintings, a central nave, side altars, and a historic pipe organ. The surroundings include the church plaza and nearby ancestral houses. The site is an active parish, so visitors encounter religious services, heritage architecture, and quiet areas for viewing and photography outside Mass hours.
