Duenas Church

The facades of Duenas, Lambunao, Calinog and Dingle Churches share numerous similarities. Somehow, the belfries of these churches distinguish them from each other. The Church of Duenas on the other hand is more ornate. The overall impression is uniquely baroque, but Neoclassic features are evident within the church's pretenses. The facade, like other neoclassic churches, is carved with broad tuscan pilasters overlayed with round columns. The pediment possesses a wavy outline which gave the church a fine Baroque movement.
The belfries which flank the facade are extraordinarily beautiful. Both belfries are baroque in the finest form. Each side of these octagonal towers are decorated by large romanesque windows, thus giving the church a lighter and cooler feel.
