History of Siquijor

Welcome!

This website is a resource for all Siquijodnons to explore our shared history, whether you’re young or once young and whether you’re in the Philippines or abroad!

Currently, four important eras of Siquijor's history are covered here, covering information gathered from countless primary sources from the Philippines, the United States, and even Spain. Almost all are available online, and you can access them under each page's "References" section.

Information about our island's experiences in the late 20th century and beyond, the lives of our diaspora abroad, and more will come over the next few months. The goal is to arm everyone with their heritage and the necessary historical context to approach the developments that face us today.

If you’d like to share your thoughts, your story or stay updated, join our Facebook page! Currently, the focus is on collecting Siquijodnons’ stories of World War II and historical photos of our island.
