This early, compact bahay na bato has a stone-walled lower level and a timber-framed upper floor reached by a broad wooden staircase. The museum presents historical collections in the house, including a copy of José Rizal’s Noli Me Tangere. The house is part of the National Museum’s Ilocos complex, so confirm current exhibitions and access before setting out.
