History & Identity

Navotas City's fiesta and days

Everything listed for Navotas City in Now

Official name
City of Navotas[6]
Created
The City of Navotas was created by Republic Act No. 9387, converting the municipality into a highly urbanized city; the bill lapsed into law without the President's signature on March 10, 2007, subject to a plebiscite.[11]

How it got its name

Local traditionThe city says the name comes from nabutas, meaning pierced through, after Manila Bay's waters breached the land and carved the Navotas River; the original name was San Jose de Navotas.[12]

Its story

The principales of San Jose and Bangkulasi petitioned Spain on December 20, 1827 to form a new town separate from Malabon.[12]

The separation of the barrios from Malabon was recorded in a document of February 16, 1859.[12]

Navotas joined Aguinaldo's revolutionary government on August 6, 1898.[12]

In 1903 Act No. 942 merged Navotas into Malabon, and the city says Navotas became a separate municipality again on January 16, 1906.[12, 13]

Navotas became a city after a plebiscite on June 24, 2007.[12]
