[edit] History
This barangay was founded in 1969 and its name was taken from the tall and beautiful endemic Lawaan trees that were plentiful. It was said that when our forefathers came to Cebu, this place was full of vegetation and its lush forest extended up to the area of Manipis. The red and white Lawaan species were in abundance.
Part of Lawaan was a place called Bacayan, which was near the Mananga River. In fact, the Mananga Bridge in Tabunoc used to be called “Taytayan sa Bacayan”. It is also the home of various subdivision of the city.
