Baclaran is a barangay located in the northern area of the city of Parañaque, Metro Manila, Philippines. It is also known to be located at the borders of the cities of Parañaque and Pasay.
Because of its proximity to the shore of Manila Bay, the place was named after a piece of fishing equipment called "Script error: No such module "lang".". Baklad is a rattan fence placed around the fish to protect them until they are ready to be sold in the market. Many of these Script error: No such module "lang". were assembled at the seashore, so people started calling the place "Bakladan". The Filipino grammatical feature of changing d's to r's when a suffix is added changed this to "Baclaran".
History
Then a barrio, Baclaran was excised, alongside barrio Tambo, from the then-municipality of Parañaque to form part of the newly established municipality of Baclaran in 1965, when both municipalities were part of Rizal province.[1] However, the Supreme Court of the Philippines later voided the creation of the new municipality, thus returning the aforementioned barrios to Parañaque.[2]
Baclaran was established in 1971 in the municipality, now city, of Parañaque.[3] It was later converted into a barangay alongside all other barrios in the Philippines in 1974.[4]
In 1973, Cardinal Karol Józef Wojtyła (later Pope John Paul II), then the Archbishop of Kraków, visited the Baclaran Church and celebrated Mass there during a brief, unofficial stopover in Manila, which was his first visit to the Philippines. In 1981, Wojtyła as Pope John Paul II returned to the shrine as part of his apostolic visit to the Philippines.
The area is well known for the National Shrine of Our Mother of Perpetual Help, also known as the Redemptorist Church or Baclaran Church, dedicated to Our Mother of Perpetual Help. The first Wednesday of every month is dedicated to the shrine of Our Lady of Perpetual Help.[5] There was also once Muslim mosque, the Baclaran Mosque, now demolished by the City of Pasay. Baclaran is known for its children and youth membership in the local rondalla, which won at NAMCYA in 1996, and the Drum and Lyre Band, as well as its street welding. There are a number of Script error: No such module "lang". (flea markets) occupying the westbound lane of Taft Avenue.

Redemptorist station of Manila Light Rail Transit System Line 1 Cavite Extension is located in the barangay, while the Baclaran station, the line's former southern terminal station in Pasay, serves the barangay.
