The Madman and the Cathedral is a documentary about one mans dream to build a cathedral.
In 1963, Don Justo Gallego Martinez laid the foundation stone of a cathedral. A peasant, with no architectural training, no construction experience and no tools, he turned his back on the fields and started building. He had no blueprints and no planning permission. He had not even seen many cathedrals. All he had was the unshakeable conviction that God wanted him to build a cathedral.

This man isn't mad this man is a genius...
Justo died Saturday. Descansa en paz. Your legacy remains and you will Always remain in my heart.
I was there yesterday and it's absolutely awesome. It touches. His chatedral transmits what a lot of churches with great budget and luxury would like to do. Humble, Hard-worker and tenacious, he's a example of fight and effort. My respects (and my little modest help to finish his work. At least a small group of people is helping him with their job, once he's already 89).

Hello dperdi, Thankyou for sharing. I've seen this video and it is very inspiring to me. Would I be able to ask you where in Madrid is this cathedral? I will be going to Madrid and I would really like to visit this cathedral.

His story is really inspiring me. Everybody should believe you can do big things!
The Pope should invite him to visit him in the Vatican ASAP.

We should organize a petition asking the Pope to summon Justo at the Vatican or to help him to finish this cathedral! God bless this saintly man!!
I mean no disrespect, but this man reminds me of Don Quixote. His vision seems insane to those who can not see it.

What if we are all Don Quixote because we chase dreams we cannot fulfil At least now he nearly achieves his ambition.
Justo had just passed away. He is his heavenly Cathedral now.
Oh Lord, thank You for great souls like papa Justo.....I am indeed more humbled by selfless souls like this
Si el mundo es lo que ahora es, es gracias a los locos que no supimos entender, lo que este hombre hace es admirable, espero que lo acabé y que algún día lo podamos apreciar, eso si, éste hombre ya se ganó un lugar en la historia.
God Bless Justo.
He is not mad. The world is. God bless him.
I would definitely hire ALOT of workers to help the poor old man

HE IS 94 YEARS OLD TODAY, AND CONTINUES TO WORK IN HIS CATHEDRAL. in Rome they should be ashamed to see authentic faith.

He has just passed away, aged 96. 😪
Michelangelo found a competitor. Imagine that he with perseverance gave many young man the strength to persue their ideals when in doubt.
This should be the next wonder of the world
Es ist so anrührend zu sehen, was man mit einer Vision alles erreichen kann. Ich liebe Don Justo, bin nur traurig, dass ich mit der Parkinsonerkrankung und div. Arthrosen die Kathedrale nicht mehr besuchen kann, hoffentlich geht es weiter, wo er schon seit längerer Zeit tot ist. Ich drücke alle Daumen. Es grüsst Ilona Czech
Right. lets get 200, 000 viewings, then make this go viral. Gaudi's Sagrada Familia in Barcelona is just as intricate as this. Don Justo is a genius, lets see that we can give him the necessary support worldwide. Dammit people, what the heck is wrong with society these days. People are still coming from all over to work on the Sagrada Familia, and all this work of Don Justo , this will be left to disappear ??? Grow up, it's not about religion, it's about belief, it's about faith, it's about architectural genius!!! A true masterpiece. Come-on!!, a million hits for this hard working mans work!!! We can all do it.. Make the world aware!! Make Spain aware, be proud that people like this exist!!
The church should make him a saint.
Ten years later, still alive
"Lo hago libre, por libertadyo no ofrezco nada, ofrezco todo(...) yo no digo nada, es que me doy todo"... A simplicidade e a fé rompem barreiras e fazem do ideal de um homem algo monumental. Que eu, que sou louco por natureza, possa conhecer a Catedral del Loco quando for a Espanha. Que Dios lo bendiga siempre Hermano Justo!
Einen größeren Glauben wie ihn dieser Mann hat gibt es nicht auf dieser Welt! RESPEKT!
It's amazing how God reveals himself to humanity by creating wonders through his faithful. This humble servant of God is gifted.
The constacia not give up, maintain the illusion is able to force a man to do great things. Despite their potential mental problems this man deserves all my respect and admiration. I hope to achieve its objectives
I want to go help him.
If you don't agree with the mass you're out of the group. So typical of any religion. He had a dream he tried to fulfill. People are more comfortable when everyone fits into the circle but not everyone is round. Sometimes there's one very different soul with many facets and it's the odd man out. It was his money and he chose what he wanted to do with it. He followed his heart. Good for him.
Praise the Lord🙏 all family

I just dropped 2 drops of tear from eyes...god bless him
Wow in 2010 the cathedral looks like a house but now real cathedral
Man this really was an amazing short that was touching enlightening and self reflecting. I only wish that this was longer. This man has a lot to teach us!
May God bless him. I have so much repect for him.
91 years old.. and work every day...
I face-lifted our garden today and i couldnt do it alone without the help of the servant. This guy built A CATHEDRAL! This is truly inspiring. Nothing is impossible if you offer your tasks to God.
A little bit disrespectful calling him a madman

Man of true talented, man of wisdom, he is absolutely true man of God

Thank you so much, be yourself, and by going 100% into what you love, you'll become a prophet. this short is a personal cure to my BIG procrastination problem. + it's beautifully made, LOVE IT.
this seems like a plot line to a Herzog film
Rest In Peace
I pray to have Justo's faith.
Only with God's gift can a "Man" accomplish his gifted talent and his faith no age limit but his will to do so; art and faith...amazing ...what this man has build with his own hands...
ST. JOSEPH THE CARPENTER AND PROTECTOR OF THE CHURCH, THANK YOU AND PLEASE CONTINUE TO PRAY FOR US.
He just trust God alone but doesn't want people judge his work.. So pity people Judge him much.. GOD hears and sees who said bad and did bad ways to him.. His devotion to GOD was Great.. Amazing Man of Faith.. He will be remembered because His place he build for Praying to GOD.. What He said is True..
Justo, basicamente, tiene mucho de Gaudi!...dos 'locos' genuinamente hispanos! como le dijo Freud a Dalí!...Bravo, D.Justo!
IT *s Don, Quijote.
Es increíble lo que ha hecho este señor :) Bien por él.
He made everything possible
Would he allow me to paint frescoes painting in his cathedral ?

молодец, видя такого человека, понимаешь, что весь мир не нормальный, а не наоборот, молодец! восхищаюсь
When he returned to the village he didn't talk to anyone. Then he decides to build a Cathedral so that people will gather and worship God. I think that this explains everything. Also, in this short version, there are some things that are missing, like, his relatives have sued his assistant for abducting him. Probably meaning that the assistant manipulates him somehow for some financial gain.
he's 85 and still fit
kzread.info/dash/bejne/X5yAqKhqc9CyYcY.html Este es el homenaje prometido... La interpretación prometida como homenaje a Justo...El Ave María de Caccini. Para Justo Gallego, constructor infatigable y gran visionario que con solo sus manos, sus ganas y su voluntad consiguió llevar a cabo la idea de construir una Catedral en Mejorada del Campo... En su memoria está interpretación grabada y realizada en la Catedral que edificó con su gran esfuerzo, en homenaje a su persona.. Interpretada por un dúo de cuerda (guitarra y violín) y soprano... HASTA SIEMPRE JUSTO
well, thank you Rogan, now almost 20,000 people know about Justo and his mad marvel!

Ojala hubieran mas locos como este tio en la iglesia CATOLICA
More astonishing than his "perseverance" would be if he changed his mind one day and said "fuck it, it was a bad idea". Because otherwise it just looks like a glaring case of post hoc rationalization and sunk cost fallacy.
KENWOKS!!!
Me encanta 😊 que hermoso ser haci
Ya se a quien le sacamos lo chismoso los mexicanos, a esas viejitas jugando cartas! Jaja 😆 🤭😂
Bendito sea Dios y su santo nombre, este santo y justo hombre me recuerda a San Francisco de Asisi cuando todos pensaban que estaba loco porque recogía piedras para levantar ina iglesia derrumbada. Pienso que asi querra muestro senor

Este santo en vida le a dado todo a Jesus y la santísima virgen una iglesia construida en la pobreza y humildad pero con verdaderos valores que ya no quedan en la iglesia católica pisoteada por sus propios pastores, que Dios permita esta obra no se pierda por la ignorancia humana y el orgullo tonto de los hombres
Y cuál será el futuro de esta construcción cuando D.Justo fallezca.? Espero que esta lucha no sea inútil y su sueño sea respetado de alguna manera.
ese hombre es fe, ojala lo acabe o sino q se reconozca su trabajo
Yes is funny .endeed Notredame burns and thee cathedrale of Justo,appears as favourite suggested. This man with his devotoun whith his mistery.
y que con esas medidas de seguridad en el trabajo, no halla habido ningun muerto o herido! me parece MILAGRO!...aunque tambien es verda que si hubiera habido un solo muerto laboral....se acabó la obra! pues habria sido sin lugar a dudas Justo!...hahahaha!...te admiro, en serio Justo!
rip, legend
8:57 "He ruined his youth" How foolish of this lady to think that...
Here is an openly saintly man. Who will begin his cause to be raised to the altar. Indeed he is a holy man.
Any updates on this ?

I think this man is he only sane person in the world. Otherwise we are all fools :(
Es un genio.
"Tiene fe y lo demás no le importa"... pues debería importarle un poco más; me parece muy bien que tenga fe en lo que sea, pero existe una cosa que se llama LEY y no podemos saltárnosla a la torera para que cada cual se ponga a construir sin control
