On August 4, 1944 or 3 days after his demise, President Quezon's corpse was temporarily interred—via caisson that was hauled by six horses—at Maine Memorial in Arlington National Cemetery.
Quezon's interment in 1947 in North Cemetery in Manila was considered as the first Presidential burial in the nation's history. In 1979, his remains were re-interred at Quezon City Memorial Circle followed by his wife's remains in 2005.
