Bahay na Pula
The Bahay na Pula, also known as the Red House, is a former hacienda in San Ildefonso, Bulacan, Philippines that was constructed in 1929 on the lands of the Ilusorio family as a family mansion with two storeys. During the Japanese occupation of the Philippines in 1942 during World War II, the house was confiscated by the Imperial Japanese Army and used as barracks and became a place where local so-called comfort women were forced to work.
The house was partially dismantled after 2014 and was in danger of collapse. In 2016, due to a feuding internal conflict between members of the Ilosorio family, the owner of the property, the heritage structure was demolished from its original Bulacan site and was said to be rebuilt in Las Casas Filipinas de Acuzar in Bataan province. Before its demolition, it was Bulacan's symbol of the savagery committed by Japanese soldiers.
