黒島天主堂
Impressive brick church built on a remote island by its resilient Christian community.
A striking Romanesque brick church standing on the remote island of Kuroshima. Built entirely by local parishioners over decades, the interior is supported by columns painted with a beautiful wood-grain finish. The peaceful island environment reflects the quiet endurance of its hidden Christian ancestors.
Rent an electric bicycle at the port to easily navigate the island's steep and winding hills up to the church.
