Things to see and do Corregidor Island

The memorial is located in the center of the island and is the highest point of the island. It was built in 1968 by the Americans as a tribute to the Filipino and American soldiers of the Second World War. Up there, there is also a small museum, a kind of reconstructed barracks that houses war memorabilia. It is a place full of history that will interest those who wish to learn more about the World War II period in the Philippines.

Please note that to make reservations (required only in April and June), it is advisable to contact the PAC Complex.

It was the headquarters of the Philippine government in exile of Manuel Quezon but also of General MacArthur. Completed in 1922, the main tunnel is 250 meters long and 7 meters wide, with twenty smaller tunnels attached to the left and right. It was later equipped to serve as an underground war hospital, with over 1,000 beds. Cannons and other installations as well as military equipment are on display to the public. Night tours are possible, and there are occasional sound and light shows.
