Near the Mahia Peninsula we came across this
interesting church in Wairoa...
|
Initially I thought this was, at last, finally, an Art Deco church |
|
N. B. the tower and its rounded top |
|
The 1950s construction date suggested it was, at best, a Deco Echo (as they say in San Francisco), however |
|
An education/administrative wing had been added to the port transept (which way do they point to Jerusalem in this hemisphere?) |
|
At length, particularly looking at the tower, I concluded it had been designed maybe by one of Albert Speer's associates, who, after the war, had emigrated to NZ; Vicki concluded it was the ugliest church she had ever seen |

Maybe I agree with Vicki about the beauty of this church.
