The giant abandoned chicken shaped church of Gereja Ayam in Magelang, Central Java whose designer by Daniel Alamsjah originally intended it to resemble a dove.
Local builders had other ideas.
The cost of construction forced Alamsjah to close the church (also used as a rehabilitation center, treating disabled children and drug addict)s fifteen years ago. Despite its currently dilapidated and graffiti’d state, it’s still in use as a place of worship.

Really needed this, thanks so much. I had forgotten its ability to cure most work-related ailments.
That’s fantastic. Granted, it’s not as beautiful as some of the mind blowing architecture and design that we have in rural Ireland, but refreshing nonetheless.
The culchie brutalist movement, has never received the credit its due, in fairness.
‘Stubborn’ is a good word for it.
Love it. Now that’s what I call architecture!
I have this funny image of the late Colonel Sanders coming across this church shortly before his death and screaming: “Oh! My! God!”
