The statue of Nuestra Señora de la Paz y Buen Viaje was brought from Mexico to Manila by Governor Juan Niño de Tavora in 1626 and at his death in 1632 was turned over to the Jesuits for the Church of Antipolo. Nuestra Señora de la Paz y Buen Viaje was proclaimed Patroness of the galleons. The statue crossed the Pacific, and returned, eight times on board the galleons of Acapulco: in 1641, 1643, 1645–46 on the San Luis; 1648–1649 on the Encarnacion; in 1650 on the San Diego; in 1851–1853 on the San Javier; in 1659–1662 on the San Jose and in 1746–1748 on the Nuestra Señora del Pilar. The statue of Nuestra Señora de la Paz y Buen Viaje was canonically crowned on November 26, 1926, by the Most Rev. Michael J. O’Doherty, Archbishop of Manila, on the Luneta, Manila, in the presence of at least one hundred thousand people. (English)
