The village is famous for holding one of the first Catholic churches in Guatemala. Francisco Marroquín, the first bishop of Guatemala, resided in San Juan del Obispo (hence the name).

A long string of overseas volunteers have lived and worked voluntarily in the village, providing education and a safe environment for children from poor homes in the areas surrounding the volcano side.
