List of historical markers of the Philippines in MIMAROPA
This list of historical markers installed by the National Historical Commission of the Philippines (NHCP) in MIMAROPA 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.
