HISTORY


Nagcarlan was headed by Datu Gat Lakilaw before its Christianization and was one of two Barangays in present-day Laguna, the other being the present town of Majayjay , to resist Spanish rule while the others surrendered to the Spanish forces. The town's conversion to Christianity began in 1578 and it formally became a ''pueblo'' in 1583 , under a Franciscan friar.

It was in Nagcarlan where Fr. Juan de Placencia, a Franciscan missionary, wrote the first '' Diccionario Hispanico-Tagalog '' in 1579 . His manuscript, ''Costumbres de los Tagalog'' which was written ten years later, was used as a guide by the alcalde mayores for effective and righteous local governance. It was in 1851 when the famous Underground Cemetery Of Nagcarlan was built.
