The National Shrine of Our Lady of Lourdes, commonly known as the Church of Lourdes of Quezon City, is a Roman Catholic national shrine in Quezon City, Philippines. The church is administered by the Order of Friars Minor Capuchin of the Philippine Ecclesiastical Province and under the Vicariate of San Pedro Bautista of the Latin Church diocese of Cubao.
The original church was located in Intramuros until it was destroyed during World War II. The venerated Marian image (Lourdes de Manila) enshrined from 1896 was hidden and spared during the bombing.
Dedicated to the Blessed Virgin Mary under the title of Our Lady of Lourdes, Pope Francis granted a decree of canonical coronation towards the image on September 5, 2019. The image was crowned on August 22, 2020.
