That’s in Italy (Milan) and it is due to lack of public funds to pay for monument restoration.
Religious monuments in italy are owned by the catholic church. If they are in need of money perhaps the pope could sell same of their golden gauntlets or their apartments in london

The italian goverment doesn’t lack money either, politicians just raised their salary.
The really essence of this building is to be an AD for the church, which by the time it was build was a state with an army.

If only the owner of those churches was one of the wealthiest organizations on the planet… Oh, wait

Seems more like a bad photoshop to me.
It looks weird because it’s a screen sponsored by Samsung, you can also see it on Apple Maps:
How utterly revolting. I get peoples comments about religion, but that doesn’t somehow remove the fact that this is a beautiful piece of architecture being marred by a disgusting shitty advert.
Who on earth chose to build a church behind this beautiful Samsung™ 4K screen?
The church is under construction. What you see behind the ad is a printed photo of what the church will look like, it is not actual architecture.
This is like a poster on the wood walls they place around construction sites, it’s fine.
Tax the churches now!
