List of National Cultural Treasures in the Philippines information
Current logo for the Philippine Registry of Cultural Property
The National Cultural Treasures (NCTs) declarations are authorized under the National Heritage Act of 2009 and recognized within the Cultural Properties of the Philippines by the Philippine government.
The list includes all declared National Cultural Treasures of the Philippines, including tangible and intangible heritage. Currently, out of the 106 NCTs, only three are intangible. The declarations are made by the National Commission for Culture and the Arts and other cultural agencies such as the National Museum of the Philippines, National Library of the Philippines, and National Archives of the Philippines. Any Filipino institution or person can nominate a cultural property for an NCT declaration, whether the property is private or public; if the property is private, the ownership of the property is retained by the private owner and shall not be transferred to the government.
As of May 2018, 75 NCTs are housed in Luzon, 6 in Mimaropa, 19 in the Visayas, and 6 in Mindanao. The Sulu archipelago currently houses no NCTs. Various NCTs originally from Mimaropa, the Visayas, and Mindanao, such as the Quran of Bayang, are housed in the National Museum in Manila in Luzon.
