Tanauan (Batangas)

The Shrine houses the remains and personal belongings of the revolutionary hero and "Brains of the Katipunan," Apolinario Mabini, who was a native of Tanauan. Mabini is known as the "Sublime Paralytic" who, despite his polio-induced paralysis, fired nationalism in the Filipinos and urged them to unite, with the sheer power of his writings. He wrote fiery articles against Spanish atrocities in revolutionary papers. His writings and memorabilia are kept here. His tomb lies at the middle of the site where a replica of the house where he was born also stands.
