The Spanish-era church was first built in the 18th century, but had to be rebuilt several times due to wars and earthquakes. One of the Gomburza, Mariano Gomez, became one of its parish priests until he was arrested in 1872 for alleged involvement in the Cavite Mutiny and was executed at the garrote in Bagumbayan, Manila. There is a historic marker dedicated to Gomez in front of the convent, along with a plaza beside the church.

One of the few remaining bahay na bato residences from the Spanish era, the privately-owned house became the first headquarters of the Philippine revolutionary government following the declaration of independence in June 1898 until September that same year, when it was transferred to Malolos, Bulacan. It became the temporary seat of the Roman Catholic Church in Bacoor in the early 1900s when Bacoor Church was taken over by the Aglipayans.
