List of historical markers of the Philippines in Northern Mindanao
This list of historical markers installed by the National Historical Commission of the Philippines (NHCP) in Northern Mindanao (Region X) is an annotated list of people, places, or events in the region that have been commemorated by cast-iron plaques issued by the said commission. The plaques themselves are permanent signs installed in publicly visible locations on buildings, monuments, or in special locations.
While many Cultural Properties have historical markers installed, not all places marked with historical markers are designated into one of the particular categories of Cultural Properties.
The marker for the Macapagal-Macaraeg House marker in Iligan, issued in 2002, became an issue because President Diosdado Macapagal never lived in the said house, although it became a home for his daughter President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo, the president at that time.[1]
