SUN SETS OVER CATHEDRAL BUILT SINGLE-HANDEDLY BY FORMER SPANISH MONK IN CENTRAL SPAIN, 2003-12-03 (photo)

Sun sets over unfinished church in the central Spanish town of Mejorada del Campo December 3, 2003. Justo Gallego, a former Spanish monk, single-handedly started the construction of the building he calls a cathedral forty years ago. He sold part of his inheritance to buy materials and learned about architecture and art by reading books. The cathedral, which now measures 33 metres high but will reach 55 metres when finished, attracts hords of tourists to this dormitory town outside Madrid. Gallego, who tackled the project out of faith, doesn't always welcome the attention. " It 's good if they come, but they need to leave donations so that I can finish it," Gallego says.REUTERS/Susana Vera PP03120012 SV
