Belgian Beer Cathedral

Well, it’s Christmas, so let’s talk about pop-up religion. We’ve found a nice temporary cathedral in Belgium…

33.000 Crates of Belgian beer brand Jupiler are being used to build a tremendous (con)temporary cathedral. The beer cathedral was designed by the Brussels-based architects of V+ as an extension of the Atomium Expo 58 held in the Belgian capital. Inside the cathedral an overview exhibition of the World Expo history was shown.
