The legend goes: The Virgin's image was caught in the fishnet of a religious man named Juan Maningkad in 1603 at the Pansipit River. It has mysteriously and continually disappeared and re-appeared in its chosen haven, so a provisional chapel was erected in 1611 near the spot where it was found. Henceforth, the image was called the Virgin of Caysasay. The image has since been adored and thought of as miraculous for granting impossible petitions to those who seek her help.
