Paulino Outdoor Oven

It was built in 1947 for the Paulinos by Jesus Menu Cristostomo out of modern materials, following a traditional form that has been in use on Guam since these ovens were introduced by the Spanish in the 17th century.

The interior of the vault is made out of heat-resistant bricks, while the exterior is finished in alternating layers of red tile and mortar.

The oven was used by the Paulino family to prepare baked goods such as dinner rolls and wedding cakes, and to roast pigs.
