Destroyed during World War II, its surviving belfry is the oldest in the city.

The main structure was destroyed by bombs during the Japanese occupation of the Philippines in World War II.

The belfry or bell tower of San Diego de Alcala Church is a cultural and religious relic of the bygone Spanish era.

A new church has since been rebuilt and renovated adjacent to the ruins, serving as an aesthetic counterpoint to the largely unchanged tower.
