Welcome to the virtual museum of Silang, Cavite, an online venue to showcase the rich local history of one of the oldest towns of the Philippines.
This will provide viewers with a glimpse of a forgotten world highlighting various changes in society, government, culture and rural landscape.
Its virtual gallery brings together old photographs courtesy of the local people, from antiquarian books and private collections, and the National Archives. It also offers the local community a venue to discuss local history and to fill in the vacuum of information on the internet on local historical heritage.
Contributors are very much welcome to join in this historical venture.

This is really good, people should take the time to look back at our town’s history..

You started a piece of work that would be an envy of all towns in this country. keep it up, and if i have pictures of our town, the old ones. i will let you know.
thank you.
Thank you very much…
Salamat sa mga tao na nag umpisa ng site na ito and also sa mga contributors. Hopefully as time goes by na mas maraming Silangueno ang makakita ng site ay mas maraming articles and pictures (old and new) will be posted to really defict our town of Silang. I left Silang in 1976 to be with my family sa New York. However, I can proudly say na I kept my roots sa Silang, maintaining my ancestral house and my connection with my relatives.
Mabuhay ang Silang, Cavite as we entered 2011. May the people keep the old ambiance and heritage inspite of icontinued economic improvement in the province and nearby towns.
Very Respectfully,
