The manor was implicit the mid 1900's by the sugar aristocrat, Don Mariano Ledesma Lacson (1865-1948) and was home to his unmarried youngsters with his first wife, Maria Braga Lacson (+1911), a Portuguese from Macau.

4-layered wellspring fronting the chateau, all got from abroad.

The chateau was the biggest private structure ever worked around then and had in it one of the finest furnitures, chinawares, and beautiful things, as the father of Maria Braga was the chief of a boat that cruised crosswise over Europe and Asia and would truck with him these things. One of their little girls kept up a lovely garden of lilies in and around the 4-layered wellspring fronting the chateau, all acquired from abroad.

One of the children managed the development of the house verifying that the An evaluation blend of cement and its pouring was decisively taken after.

The house met its dismal destiny in the early piece of World War II when the USAFFE (United States Armed Forces in the Far East), then guerilla warriors in the Philippines, blazed the chateau to keep the Japanese powers from using it as their base camp. It took days of inferno to cut down the rooftop and the two-inch wooden floors.

Right up 'til today, the 903 square meter structure still stands tall in the midst of sugar manor and keeps on awing both neighborhood and remote visitors. Genuinely, a photo flawless setting and a heavenly sight to see.
