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.
