History

The School of Dr. Jose P. Rizal Site and Museum showcases the early life of Rizal as a student. It was opened in 2016 and renovated in 2021. [2] [3]

The museum also hosts a historical marker that the Philippines Historical Committee, now the National Historical Commission of the Philippines, installed on the site in 1948. [4] [5] The marker denotes the location where Rizal received his formal education under Justiniano Cruz, who was also the teacher of his brother Paciano. [5] [6] The school was a small hut, which also serves as Cruz's house. [2]

For a year and a half, Rizal learned Spanish, Latin, painting, and other classes. [3] [7] After attending school in 1871, Rizal continued his secondary education at the Ateneo de Manila University. [5] [8]
