Historical markers (Filipino: panandang pangkasaysayan; Spanish: marcador histórico or placa histórica) are installed by the National Historical Commission of the Philippines (NHCP) and its predecessor agencies in the Philippines and places abroad that signify important and historic events, persons,[1][2] structures,[3] and institutions.[4] The commemorative plaques are permanent signs installed by the NHCP in publicly visible locations on buildings, monuments, or in special locations. The NHCP also allows local municipalities and cities to install markers of figures and events of local significance, although these markers are barred from using the seal of the Republic of the Philippines.[5]
As of December 2023, the total number of historical markers (designated as Level II) included in the NHCP's registry is 1,381;[6] however, the number of markers from all these lists is more than 1,700 including those decommissioned, lost, and of unknown location.
