Punta Cruz Watch Tower

Maribojoc, Bohol
May 22, 2009


Built in 1796 as a look-out post against pirates and Muslim marauders, who at that time where a nuisance to the people of Bohol. Made from corals and shaped like a triangle on top. The watch tower was damaged during the war of 1944 and declared as a National monument only this year. It is a testament to the Filipino craftsmanship and ingenuity that has stood witness to the passing of time.
