The pavilion houses the famous Magellan's Cross, which is believed to be planted by Ferdinand Magellan on April 21, 1521. The cross is encased in a wooden structure to protect it from the elements and curious visitors.​
Magellan's Cross is considered a symbol of Cebu's conversion to Christianity. The planting of the cross marked the beginning of a significant era in Philippine history, as it was during this time that the locals were introduced to Christianity.
The cross is made of tindalo wood, a hardwood native to the Philippines. Over the centuries, the original cross has undergone several renovations and preserves, but a portion of the original wood is said to still be present.
The pavilion also houses an image of the Santo Niño (Child Jesus), a religious icon with historical significance. The statue was a gift from Magellan to Rajah Humabon's wife, Queen Juana, during their baptism in 1521. The Santo Niño is highly venerated and plays a central role in Cebu's religious festivities, particularly the Sinulog Festival.
