Baguio Mansion House – The Presidential Museum is a former presidential summer residence in Baguio City that now operates as a museum and landmark showcasing the country’s executive history. Built during the Commonwealth period, the Mansion House served as a retreat for Philippine presidents and statesmen, and its architecture captures elements of early 20th-century governmental design within the cool highland setting.
Visitors to the site move through its halls and rooms, many preserved or restored to reflect interior and exterior styles associated with past presidencies. Exhibits include photographs, memorabilia, official furnishings, and context on how the structure was used during various administrations, providing insight into national governance and lifestyle during official stays in Baguio. The site’s elevated terrace and landscaped grounds also offer views over the city’s surroundings, linking its historical role with the broader landscape that made Baguio a favored site for governmental retreats.
