The world's quirkiest churches
Saint-Michel d’Aiguilhe, France: Erected in 962 AD, this church sits on a volcanic plug! It's just a quick 268 steps, carved into the rock itself.
Cathedral Of Maringá, Brazil: This cathedral in Paraná is the tallest church in South America.
St. George’s Church, Ethiopia: The rock churches of Lalibela are the largest monolithic temples in the world.
Inflatable Church, England: The first of its kind, this blow-up church was erected in 2003 in Sandown.
Wieliczka Salt Mine Chapel, Poland: Miners, who worked a life-threatening job, needed religion underground, so they carved chapels directly out of the rock salt.
Las Lajas Sanctuary, Colombia: Located in the small town of Ipiales, this immense and gorgeous church is wedged into a narrow canyon beside a river.
Harajuku Church, Japan: In the hyper-trendy Harajuku district you’ll find a sleek, modern Protestant church.
Cathedral of Brasilia, Brazil: Inside the cathedral might even be better, with four bells, a reflecting pool.
Cathedral of Brasilia, Brazil: No matter what you make of this radically original cathedral in Brazil’s capital.
Sedlec Ossuary, Czech Republic: Few churches are as spooky as this church in Kutná Hora.
