Living Inside A Fully Converted Former Church

In Sopuerta, in the north of Spain, Tas Careaga has converted an abandoned church into a spacious loft. The building is a combination of old and new elements and even features a room that can only be reached via slackline.

Sad to know that the Church was in disrepair and then sold by the diocese, but glad to see that the current owner took the efforts and decided to save what could be saved of this marvellous 15th century place of worship. 🙏

This wouldnt be a novelty in Ireland we have houses, hotels and bars all over the place that used to be churches.

[@markdsouza9216]

@Jimmy Ryan Wow!! Would love to see those places.

[@robertmcdonnell3117]

I've lived in Limerick, Cork, Galway and Dublin and I never saw that lol

[@logikius]

Nothing to be proud of

A slack line to the other bedroom....10 metres high. Well...thats one way to discourage overnight guests. Nice work and living space below though.

He could do a wooden slat suspended bridge between those two spaces. It would be more stable yet still have a bit of the feel of the slackline.

He is an artist. A very talented professional photographer.

[@anamikadeb9335]

just imagine the church having a haunted history

[@dweuromaxx]

Would probably make for a good b-movie horror flick 😃

🇨🇦🇨🇦Check out what my wife and I are doing with our Ole Church!

[@patrickfitzgerald2861]

LMAO! And all it took was, what, maybe five million euros to pull off? Must be nice! 😎

[@l1ncs]

well, didn’t take long for the bible-basher trolls to find this comment thread 😂

[@pradeepjames408]

Let god speak to him to turn this into A Church again a place to worship for all people

[@NormallyImKim]

You could ask the previous owner to do that instead of letting that fall into disrepair. And there are probably few christians there which was why no one visited that old church.

Bigot

[@shabamuhidin634]

bad luck,no verse in the bible says church is the place of worship thats why many churches are turned into bars and clubs and nothing happens
