CLARK MUSEUM
It chronicles the rich historical past of Clark, Pampanga which dates back when the American cavalry soldiers arrived to this once verdant grasslands in 1902, to become the largest US military installation outside mainland U.S.A. This was the situation until 1991 when US forces pulled out due to the abrogation of the U.S. – Philippine Military Bases Agreement and the disastrous effects of the Mt. Pinatubo eruption.
The Museum also serves as a reminder to the present and future generation, of events that shaped Clark’s history. It pays tribute to the resiliency of the Filipinos whose determination and hard work have made this severely damaged former US Military installation into what it is today.
Essentially, Clark has become a world-class business metropolis, composed of an aviation complex – the Diosdado Macapagal International Airport, and has gained reputation as a fast-rising commercial and tourism center in the country.
