The Church is the brain child of a New York based master artist, Dennis Oppenheim. This master artist has built the first one in 1997 named it "Device to Root out Evil", an inverted church with its steeple planted into the ground.

This church is not exact duplicate of the original one. Perhaps a native Mallorca atrist errected this protoype, just out side the ABA Art Contemporani (www.abaart.com)
This church follows the style of the Calgary, but it is significantly different than those of North America. Wooden frame is used along with steel. The windows are covered by white board from inside. This one is colorful. Colorful corrugated sheet is used instead of colorful transparent Venetian glasses.
