Places of Interest


Saint Joseph Catholic Church 
Inarajan's Catholic church was established by the Spanish in late 1680 and has been rebuilt several times, most recently in the late 1990s.  It has been the center of the village for several hundred years.  The village holds two fiestas for its patron saint: one in March in honor of St. Joseph, Husband of Mary, and another in May in honor of St. Joseph, the Worker.  It is also the burial site of Father Jesus Baza Duenas, a local martyr who was one of the two Chamorro priests on Guam during World War II.
