Not only the Basilica home to the oldest and original religious artifacts, it is also home of the famous Magellan's Cross. The Magellan's Cross was planted by Ferdinand Magellan on April 21,1521 when he first came to visit Cebu. This is also the time when he converted the natives to become Roman Catholics.
