The Museum of Modern Filipino Art (MoMFA) begins with a dream and the land on which to build it.  To stand proudly on historic Mount Samat in Bataan, its goal is to showcase the best of modern and contemporary Filipino art and to instill in future generations an abiding love and pride in their cultural heritage.  Aside from the structure that will preserve and display the art collections, activities such as exhibits, competitions and workshops are being designed for the MoMFA dream to come to fruition. By doing all this, we acknowledge with gratitude that man’s innermost aspirations and his very ability to create art emanates from the Divine Creator Himself.


This miniature village features the homes of the skilled craftsmen who serve at the castle.  All houses are unique; no two houses are exactly the same. The roofs were first fashioned from wooden coffee stirrers then cast in resin. The houses feature details such as cats on the windowsills, crows on the roofs, complete furniture and the occasional string of sausages hanging to dry. The rooms are typically three inches by four inches in size.
