San Pablo, officially the Municipality of San Pablo ( Ibanag: Ili nat San Pablo; Ilocano: Ili ti San Pablo; Tagalog: Bayan ng San Pablo), is a 2nd class municipality in the province of Isabela, Philippines. According to the 2020 census, it has a population of 26,320 people. [5]
San Pablo is 52 kilometres (32 mi) from Ilagan and 450 kilometres (280 mi) from Manila.
The town was founded on 1646 as Maquila by Fr. Pedro de Santo Tomas, making it the oldest town in Isabela and existing before the province's creation. The original name literally means sparkling. It was then renamed to Cabagan, loosely interpreted as the place where people wear "ba-ag" or "G-strings" when the Spaniards arrived at the Philippine Islands.
In the 1900s, Cabagan was subdivided into three divisions, namely: Cabagan Viejo, Cabagan Nuevo, and Santa Maria. Cabagan Viejo was then renamed to San Pablo, after its patron saint Paul the Apostle whose feast day is celebrated every January 15. Meanwhile, Cabagan Nuevo became the modern-day Cabagan, while Santa Maria retained its name. [2]
San Pablo is politically subdivided into 17 barangays. [7] Each barangay consists of puroks while some have sitios.
