Our Lady of Caysasay is a celebrated 17th-century image of the Immaculate Conception. In the small bario of Caysasay in Taal Batangas, a fisherman Juan Maningcad found the little statue of the Blessed Virgin Of the Immaculate Conception soaked in the water instead of catching a fish with his net in a river nearby the sea, He picked it up and brought it home. No one knew how the image got to the river, according to the old folks, the image was thrown by one of the spaniards to facify the ravages of the ocean during one of those expeditions and somehow the waves pushed it to the river, some believe it became from China and another opinion was that perhaps someone exploring the river accidentally dropped it.
