A pretty chapel, with a water point. A deceased woman, born in 1795, is buried there

This church is dedicated to Saint Joseph, the foster father of Jesus Christ. He—like Zechariah, the father of John the Baptist—is a man on the threshold between the Old and New Testaments. Joseph came from the House of David, one of the twelve tribes of Israel. He was a carpenter by trade and the betrothed of the Blessed Virgin Mary. Saint Joseph's feast day in the calendar of saints is March 19th; in addition, the Church celebrates the feast of "Joseph the Worker" on May 1st.
