Two
kilometers from Oslob is the remains of a fortified town, whose
Visayan name means old town. This is the ancient site of Oslob.
Except for the wall and bastions, no ancient structure remains in
the town site. The small chapel within the defensive enclosure is
of recent construction. On a hill beside the fortified town is an
octagonal watchtower covered with vegetation. The trek up the hill
is worth it for the panoramic view of the Bohol Strait and the neighboring
islands. Like the fortified town, the watchtower is in disrepair,
so explore cautiously.
