Perched gracefully on a hill overlooking the charming poblacion of Gasan and the sweeping waters of the Tablas Strait, the St. Joseph Spouse of Mary Parish stands as both a spiritual refuge and a celebration of Filipino artistry. Its elevated location offers a serene backdrop—where the sea breeze meets the quiet rhythm of prayer.
Recently renovated, the church showcases a stunning display of local craftsmanship. Its interiors bloom with vibrant paintings, intricate carvings, and sculptures created by Marinduque’s own artists, turning the sacred space into a living gallery of devotion and culture. Each detail reflects the community’s deep faith, as well as its pride in homegrown talent
Adding to its charm is a remarkable collection of antique church bells displayed on the church’s northwestern side. Alongside them is a listing of priests who once served the parish—an enduring tribute to its long and storied past.
More than a place of worship, the hilltop church of Gasan is a cherished landmark where art, history, and spirituality converge, offering every visitor a moment of beauty, reflection, and connection to the island’s rich heritage.
