| The Inmaculada at the "Flores" event, 7 June 1953 |
The principal patroness of Mandaluyong City is La
Inmaculada Concepción de Mandaluyong, enshrined at the San Felipe Neri Parish
Church. Because her venerated image is housed in the parish, the identity of

ecclesiastical tradition. The city officially proclaimed her as the patroness
and mother of Mandaluyong in January 2024.

tradition of the San Felipe Neri Parish,
a month-long May devotion and offering
of flowers to the Blessed Virgin Mary, as shown in this 7 June 1953 photo, highlighted
by Her procession,
