ST. JOSEPH'S CHURCH
St. Joseph's Church, with an amphitheater for the annual Boffa pilgrimage.
Coulon Katty, king of Rio Pongo, had entrusted Faidherbe with the task of converting his three sons living in Senegal. When Coulon Katty died, they gave Faidherbe a piece of land where he built a church in 1877. After a fire destroyed it, it was rebuilt, this time in stone, in 1897. However, today you will only see the church built in 1934. The cemetery bears witness to the history of this place. An amphitheater has been built on the square in front of the church, which is now used to welcome the faithful during the annual pilgrimage to Boffa at Easter.
