History
The Davao City Hall structure was built in 1926 when Davao City was still a municipality. Davao formally attained cityhood via Commonwealth Act No. 51 on October 16, 1936, during the presidency of Manuel L. Quezon. Davao's inauguration as a city would be held on March 1, 1937.
The Davao City Hall would be destroyed during World War II in 1945 but would be restored in 1947 based on its original design.
In 2017, the wooden flooring and door which is a legacy of the 1926 structure was renovated. The flooring was replaced by concrete and steel.
Heritage status
The National Historical Commission of the Philippines recognizes the building as a historical site on November 17, 2012.
