THE MUNICIPALITY OF PILAR IN BRIEF

I. HISTORY BACKGROUND

The Church of Panay, Capiz

The first settlement of Pilar was located at the mouth of the Sibala River. The first settlers were the people who tried to escape from the tyranny of Spaniards during the forced labor era. Due to the abundance of raw materials both from land and sea, the people engaged themselves in industries and progressed without the dominance and interference of the Spaniards. This kind of life went on for several years until they were discovered by the Spaniards. Eventually theu had to take refuge in the hills and caves of Balisong.

During the Spanish regime, Sibala as the former name of Pilar, was once a missionary and military outpost of panay island. In 1720, Barrio Aranguel became an independent municipality and Sibala became a part of Aranguel. However, due to frequent Moro raid and poor programs and poor progress of Menguel, it was reverted into a barrio of Pontevedra in 1750, and Sibala became a part of Pontevedra.

On October 29, 1856, Cananayan was declared, by decree of Governor General Crespo,  an independent municipality and Sibala became a part of Casanayan until May 29, 1865 when, by decree Governor Primo de Rivera, Sibala became an independent municipality and the official name of “Pilar” in honor Nuestra Señora del Pilar.
