Tsuwano Churches

The Tsuwano Catholic Church, built in 1931, is a unique site blending Japanese culture and Christianity. It features tatami mats instead of pews and offers insight into the history of persecuted Christians.

Otome Toge Maria Chapel, built in 1951, honors Japanese Christians persecuted in the Meiji Period. Nestled in the woods, it’s a peaceful spot to reflect on their resilience and courage during tough times.
