Description:
The “Bahay ni Rizal” as the locals of Calamba used to call it, is a replica of the Spanish period stone house where our national hero was born on June 19, 1861 and lived until he started his formal studies in Biñan. It was located adjacent to the St. John the Baptists Parish Church where our hero was christened Jose Protacio Rizal Mercado y Alonso Realonda. Later on, this historic site will be known as the Rizal Shrine Calamba and consequently became a popular destination for both local and foreign tourists, fieldtrips and academic researches. 

Under the direct supervision of National Historical Commission of the Philippines, Rizal Shrine Calamba is now a modernized museum known as Museo ni Jose Rizal, Calamba that recaptures not only the era of Jose’s childhood but as well as his travels across the world. 

Having an area of 3,704 square meters, it has six galleries that housed several facsimiles, photographs, replicas and authentic artifacts which are related to Dr. Jose Rizal and has several interactive and traditional exhibits. Guests can enjoy a free tour inside the house, different galleries, as well as a stroll along the vast garden where the remains of Francisco Mercado and Teodora Alonso were buried.
