THE MODERNIZED GAT/HERMANO ANDRES BONIFACIO TRIAL HOUSE AND MUSEUM

THE MODERNIZED GAT/HERMANO ANDRES BONIFACIO TRIAL HOUSE AND MUSEUM

The Gat/Hermano Andres Bonifacio Trial House was closed temporarily sometime in June or July 2014 to give way for the Modernization and Conversion into a Museum. I had the chance to visit the renovation works after the Typhoon Glenda affected the area.

The museum contains a new narrative and interactive displays on the trial of Andres Bonifacio, the events that led to it, and the impact of his execution from the lens of his wife, the Lakambini of the Katipunan, Gregoria de Jesus. The museum also has an e-learning facility where students can access the NHCP’s online lessons on Bonifacio and other Philippine heroes.
