Completed in 1933 in the Sampaloc district of Manila, the University of Santo Tomas Central Seminary Building is an Art Deco structure designed by architect Fernando H. Ocampo. The building serves as home to the Santísimo Rosario Parish, the Central Seminary, and the Faculties of Ecclesiastical Studies of the Pontifical and Royal University of Santo Tomas. The parish itself was canonically inaugurated on April 26, 1942, by Michael J. O'Doherty, Archbishop of Manila. In recognition of its architectural and cultural significance, the National Museum of the Philippines formally designated the Central Seminary Building as a National Cultural Treasure on January 25, 2010.
