Cebu Provincial Capitol or White House of Cebu
The Cebu Provincial Capitol is the seat of the provincial government of Cebu.
Construction by Pedro Siochi & Company, Inc. started in 1937 during the incumbency of Governor Sotero Cabahug and was finished one year later during the time of Governor Buenaventura Rodriquez.
It was inaugurated on June 14, 1938 by Philippine Commonwealth President Manuel L. Quezon. A tree planted by Quezon commemorates the event.
The capitol features a domed three-level main building flanked by a two-level wing on both sides.
The concave facade at the middle portion of the building contains an inscription that says “The authority of the government emanates from the people. Erected A.D. MCMXXXVII.”
