The Mactan Sanctuary is located where the Battle of Mactan took place in 1521. This park and its statue commemorate the Lapu-Lapu chief's victory over the Spanish explorer Magellan and his men on April 27, 1521. It was during this battle that Magellan was mortally wounded. It is the site of one of the key events in Philippine history, as Magellan retreated for the first time. Even today, Lapu-Lapu is regarded by Filipinos as their first hero, as he was the first leader to resist the Spanish invaders.
