The Imus Heritage Park is a memorial park in Imus, Cavite, Philippines commemorating the Battle of Alapan. It is known for the Shrine of the National Flag of the Philippines (Filipino: Dambana ng Pambansang Watawat ng Pilipinas)[1] [2] [3]
The National Historical Commission of the Philippines recognizes the Imus Heritage Park as a National Historic Landmark through Resolution No. 5 of May 26, 1993.[1] [4] The park has also been a venue of National Flag Day commemorations.[3]
The park covers an area of 5ha, purportedly at the site where the Battle of Alapan occurred. It also features a 35.05m (114.99feet) flagpole, which used to be the old Independence Flagpole in Rizal Park in Manila.[5] In 2019, a sanctum of Katipunan revolutionary flags was unveiled at the National Flag Shrine.[6] A 10m (30feet) sculpture known as the Inang Laya ('Mother of Freedom') was inaugurated the following year.[7]
