Justo Gallego Martínez (also known as Don Justo) (born 20 September 1925 in Mejorada del Campo) is a former monk who has been erecting a cathedral-like building in the town of Mejorada del Campo in the Community of Madrid, Spain, since 1961. Don Justo has named the building Nuestra Señora del Pilar. It has neither any planning permissions, nor has it the benediction of any church authority. ==Life and inspiration== Gallego Martínez was a farmer. His mother, a Roman Catholic, was very pious. His school education was interrupted by the Spanish Civil War.〔 At the age of ten he witnessed communist forces, who were fighting Franco, shooting priests and ransacking the church in Mejorada del Campo; the events left him with little respect for the town’s socialist administration.〔 As a young man, he joined a Trappist monastery but had to leave in 1961, after eight years, when he contracted tuberculosis and his health deteriorated in the monastic regime. He began to build a cathedral on a plot of land he had inherited from his parents. He had promised that if he recovered from the tuberculosis which had struck him down, he would build a shrine in honour of Our Lady of the Pillar, to whom he had prayed. Gallego Martínez usually begins his workday at 6am and works for ten hours a day, except on Sundays. Eusebio Sanchez Dominges the parish priest described Gallego Martinez as a devout man, who attends Mass every Sunday.〔Veerle Devos 2008 "Opus Dei: Justo Gallego Martinez: Moving Heaven & Earth" '' DAMNmagazine'' (#16)〕 Despite his age, he has remained active in constructing the church as of July 2015.〔(【引用サイトリンク】work=Naked Madrid )〕
