The parish of Lipa was administered by the Augustinians from 1605 to the end of the nineteenth century. Lipa, which was located formerly on the shore of Bombon Lake, was destroyed by the eruption of Taal Volcano in 1754, but was reconstructed on the present site. This Church was built under the supervision of the Rev. Benito Varas, O.S.A., parish priest from 1865 to 1894. The Diocese of Lipa was created by Pope Pius X on April 10, 1910. The Augustinians encouraged the extensive cultivation of cacao and coffee. (English)
