Marikina Church

The Diocesan Shrine and Parish of Nuestra Señora de los Desamparados (en:Our Lady of the Abandoned), commonly known as Marikina Church, is a Roman Catholic church in Marikina, the Philippines. The church enshrines one of several images of the Madonna and Child venerated as miraculous, which has received a Pontifical decree of coronation. The church itself is a testament of a religious controversy rooting back from Marikina's early history wherein both the Jesuits and Augustinians fought over the ecclesiastical control of the area. The church is also known for featuring Metro Manila's longest Holy Week processions with around 87 floats as of 2023, and the third overall after the St. Augustine Parish in the town of Baliuag and the San Isidro Labrador Parish in the town of Pulilan, both located in the province of Bulacan and featuring at least 110 floats.
