This mansion is an extraordinary historical residence in the Philippines, also known as the Yusay-Consing Mansion.
With its awe-inspiring architecture, featuring majestic ceilings, graceful Neoclassical balustrades, and intricate carvings, this mansion stands as a testament to the country's rich heritage.
Nestled across from the lively town plaza and St. Anne Parish Church in the vibrant Molo district, it was originally the cherished abode of Doña Petra Lacson and Estanislao Yusay, a revered judge.
Together, they raised a loving family of ten children, leaving behind a legacy that echoes through time.
Following their departure, the esteemed Timoteo Consing Sr., a former governor of Iloilo, found solace within the mansion's storied walls. Over the years, it welcomed distinguished guests, including two Philippine Presidents, Manuel L. Quezon and Sergio Osmena, who graced its premises during official visits to Iloilo.
Despite facing neglect in later years, a private company (SM Group) breathed new life into the mansion after acquiring it from the Consing family in 2014.
