San Carlos Seminary

The Royal and Conciliar San Carlos Seminary is the archdiocesan seminary of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Manila. On December 8, 1707, the seminary was blessed and inaugurated by Archbishop Francisco Cuesta, and was named Royal Seminary of San Clemente, in honor of the reigning Pope Clement XI. The seminary building was heavily damaged during the earthquake of 1889, so again the seminarians had to be moved.

San Carlos was granted its own five-hectare site in San Pedro (now Guadalupe), Makati City, along Highway 54 (now EDSA). Constructions began, and on January 24, 1953, his Eminence Norman Thomas Cardinal Gilroy, then legate a latere to the on-going First Plenary Council of the Philippines, inaugurated the new San Carlos Seminary building.
