Mina Dos Estrellas Chapel

This chapel was built by European settlers as a place of Christian worship for the mine's workers. When the European settlers developed the Mina Dos Estrellas, they brought Christian missionaries with them.

The last service in this chapel was held on the morning of the Great Flood in 1937. After the service and hours of an unseasonable continuous rain, the riverbanks gave way and flooded the mining complex with water. The waters came so quickly and with such force that only a handful of workers escaped. After that, the chapel was abandoned.

Natives to the area will not enter this chapel, nor go anywhere near it. This chapel symbolizes everything that the Nahaul opposes. When the people of the area converted to the new religion, they no longer showed respect for the Nahaul.
It is believed this angered the Nahaul. The Nahaul then brought about mass destruction, through manipulation of nature.
