San Bartolome Church
Historically, this was refered to, when there were no other churches, but only the Catholic church, as Iglesia de Tambobong, then later in english as Malabon church, so far, it became a tradition to call it Malabon church, until other religions came in, and other catholic chapels (visitas) became churches themselves. This is just to reflect the importance of the church as the main church of the town. It also gives reference to its history as the main one. To compare this with Tondo church, there are many other churches and religions in Tondo, but we still call it as Tondo church.
If we are looking at it as now, yes it is true that it must be called as San Bartolome church of Malabon.
