This paper extends the result of \cite{BM} on the homogenization of integral functionals with linear growth defined for Sobolev maps taking values in a given manifold. Through a $\Gamma$-convergence analysis, we identify the homogenized energy in the space of functions of bounded variation. It turns out to be finite for $BV$-maps with values in the manifold. The bulk and Cantor parts of the energy involve the tangential homogenized density introduced in \cite{BM}, while the jump part involves an homogenized surface density given by a geodesic type problem on the manifold.
