The Baroque Churches of the Philippines is the official designation to a collection of four Spanish-era churches in the Philippines, upon its inscription to the UNESCO world heritage list in 1993. These churches have built the history of Philippines. The unique architecture of the churches did not just reflect the adaptation of Spanish/Latin American architecture to the local environment but also of the Church's political influence. These churches had been subject to attacks by local revolts and rebellions, hence, most had the appearance of a fortress, rather than just serving as mere religious structures.

The Church of the Gesù symbolizes the Holy Trinity. The church is situated on Sacred Heart Hill, a small hill overlooking Bellarmine Field and believed to be the highest point in Loyola Heights.
