The church was originally constructed as a simple mud church in May 1863. On 13 October 1865, the church was heavily destroyed by an earthquake. It was then rebuilt with a bigger size and completed on 8 December 1870 when it was inaugurated.
On 9 December 1984, the church was conferred the title of basilica by Pope John Paul II, making it the first church in Taiwan to receive such title. ﹝Source: Wiki ，CC BY-SA 3.0﹞

萬金天主堂在屏東旅遊景點上已是小有名氣，而近年來的一些活動像是夜晚的燈光秀更是讓知名度大增，讓原本平靜的小村落萬金(旁邊還有被戲稱"萬金人蹤滅"的萬金營區)瞬間熱鬧起來，成為北屏東平原一個必去的景點。
Now Wanchin Basilica is one of famous tourism spot in Pingtung, especially light show in Christmas season.
