Pinagrealan Cave holds a significant history where the networks of caverns were used as headquarters of Katipuneros during World War II. Gen. Emilio Aguinaldo and Gen. Pio del Pilar once resided in this cave. It is also known for its alluring rock formations that is distinguished by smooth stalagmites and sharp stalactites well sculpted by time and elements. It was also known as the “Kweba ng Minuyan” where the location of the cave is situated at the foot of the famous mountain range, Sierra Madre.
