Marcos Museum and Mausoleum, Presidential mausoleum in Batac, Philippines
The museum contains numerous artifacts, photographs, documents, and personal belongings that tell the story of Ferdinand Marcos' time in office and military service.
Initially established in 1993, the mausoleum housed Marcos' remains for public display until 2016, when they were transferred to the Libingan ng mga Bayani cemetery.
The museum presents perspectives on Philippine political history through exhibits that reflect the complex relationship between leadership, governance, and national identity.
Located in the Ilocos Norte region, the museum offers guided tours that provide detailed explanations of the exhibits and maintains regular hours for educational visits.
The mausoleum previously displayed what many visitors believed to be Marcos' preserved body, though reports suggested it may have been one of multiple wax replicas.
