Cebu City Official Seal Logo Picture

The official seal of Cebu City is a replica of a rich cultural heritage.

The seal features the most famous historical landmark of the city, the Magellan’s Cross. The cross is housed in a kiosk made of thick wood and brick tiles. This symbolizes the strong foundation of the people’s Catholic faith. Magellan’s Cross is also a symbolism for Cebu being the oldest city in the country. The black and white tiles represent the 80 barangays comprising the City of Cebu.
