The tower is ancient and was used as a lookout to warn the residents of the approaching Muslim marauders, who frequently come to inflict significant damage. Women and children sought refuge in the watchtower as the men battled the pirates. Only a small portion is now left because the majority of its parts were destroyed to make way for the school surrounding the relic.
Santo Rosario Church, also known as Our Lady of Holy Rosary Church, is a simple yet splendid century-old church. Stepping inside the church will give you a glimpse of the town’s past and the role it played in history. Like most old churches, Santo Rosario Church was built in 1882 using coral stones and underwent some renovations to strengthen the new structure. It is commonly referred to as the “Green Church” because the materials used in its renovations and furnishings reflect the church designers’ ingenuity and care for the environment. Driftwood chandeliers, the sawali (woven bamboo skin) walls, the ornamental plants at the entrance, bamboo columns, and other local materials will welcome you upon entering the church.
