Sometimes people ask me what there is to see in my area. So I've been sharing pictures of our fields (specially the flowery season) to these people that ask me. Now there are other things to do then fields... but yeah, my area is largely fields. There are some cities where there are activities, but being from a rural area it's just not that exciting to most foreigners as a big city.
But there are some other pictures that always get a "wow" responds. They are the pictures of a little metal church that was build in 2011 by an architect/artist called "Gijs Van Vaerenbergh". So because most people went "wow", I'll share the pictures (wich are not mine) here too. The project was called: "Reading between the lines", and it has gotten a fair amount of media attention and won some prices.
You can find an article/introduction to the little monument over here: https://www.archdaily.com/298693/reading-between-the-lines-gijs-van-vaerenbergh https://www.architectmagazine.com/technology/detail/reading-between-the-lines-for-a-church-made-of-metal_o (I also got most of the pictures from the first article)
... oh yeah. It's in the middle of a field :D

@sarabee1995 There are still people that go to church.
But they aren't that attractive annymore, and they don't find priests to man them. Some are being changed to community homes, supermarkets, mosques, ...
