HistoryHistoryLegend nearest to the truth is that Angat got
its name after the Tagalog word angat, meaning a high piece of land or a community living in a promontory during the Spanish regime.
At the arrival of the Spaniards, the people as a whole were at first hostile to the conquerors, but after the complete Christianization of the community, Spaniards gradually befriended the inhabitants. The whole town, however, embraced the Catholic faith, more by force than by conviction. Forced labor was imposed principally on the construction of public edifices, like the church and the Presidencia.

HistoryHistory The history of Marilao is correlated with the
history of Meycauayan. This may be true, for in the old days, Marilao was part of Meycauayan and its biggest barrio. I got its name from a yellow plan growing abundantly in the place.
Meycauayan was established by the Franciscans between the years 1578 and 1579, or seven years before Manila was established, according to the historical records kept by Reverend Father Luis L. Lopez, D.D. (deceased), found among the records in the church. Meycauayan was formerly comprised of Obando, Marilao, Bocaue and San Jose del Monte

HistoryHistory The first missionaries to reach the place were Reverend
Fathers Juan de Placencia and Diego Oropesa. The town proper (poblacion) was located in Malhacan, at present a barrio of Meycauayan. In 1588, storm and earthquake destroyed the churches and leveled almost all houses. Due to these calamities, the poblacion was transferred to Lagulo, but robbers and Aetas frequented Lagulo. The church was finally constructed on a lot surrounded with bamboo trees; hence, from bamboo (kawayan) the town of Meycauayan got its name. Father Antonio de Nombelas made the transfer of poblacion from Lagulo to Meycauayan in abeyance with the request of Father Pedro Bautista, a priest tortured and put to death and later held martyr in Japan. The Catholic hierarchy later honored him as a saint.
On February 27, 1901, the town of Marilao again became a barrio of Meycauayan. It was only in 1913 that Marilao completely became an independent town.

Divine Mercy National ShrineDivine Mercy National ShrineOn a rocky hilltop in Marilao, a town in the Province of
Bulacan, just a few kilometers from Manila, stands the Shrine dedicated to the Divine Mercy. No one could have foreseen that this place which used to be haunted to most of the residents and passersby would turn out to be the one of the most blessed pilgrim sites in the country.
The place has become a destination for pilgrimages due to numerous cases of healings and conversions. The people who come and pray could attest to the sacredness of the place that combines Nature’s bliss with their yearning to be blessed. Somewhere somehow, they feel that the Mercy of God is so immeasurable. The intense feeling as the pilgrims arrive to this place of serenity creates an attraction to always come back and relish their experiences at the Shrine.
