History

Church NHC historical marker installed in 2021

By the year 1571–1602, the municipality of Binangonan was founded by Spanish missionaries. It was only a part of Morong at that time, but on 1621, it was separated. The Spanish missionaries then decided to create an independent parish and chose St. Ursula as the parish's patron.

The parish of Binangonan was founded in 1621. In 1679, its administration was handed over to the Jesuits, who in 1697 transferred administration to the Augustinians. In 1737, Binangonan returned to the administration of the Franciscans, who had founded it in the first place. The church was built from 1792 to 1800, renovated in 1853. At the same time, the adjacent convento was rebuilt, under Fr. Francisco de Paula Gomez.
