Ice church is snow joke for Bavarian village

Photo credit: Der Spiegel

A church made of ice? It's snow joke for a Bavarian village, where an entire building was made out of the white stuff to celebrate Christmas.

The church, which reaches up to 65 feet, consists of 49,000 cubic feet of snow, but is not the first slippery structure to be created in the town of Mitterfirmiansreut. A century ago, the local residents found themselves snowbound and unable to reach the nearest church in the nearby town of Mauth. Instead, they built their own church in protest.

Now, the townspeople have been at again. Following two years of planning from restaurant owner Bernd Stiefvater, the village hired architect Alfons Doeringer to design the current snow church to pay tribute to that extraordinary Christmas in 1911.
