The Sacred Heart Church in Beagle Bay, Western Australia, is renowned for its stunning interior adorned with mother-of-pearl, cowrie, volute, and olive snail shells. Constructed in 1917 under the guidance of Father Thomas Bachmair, a German Pallottine missionary, the church's interior was decorated by local women, blending traditional Aboriginal and Christian symbols with local materials and European techniques. The church is a significant place of worship, community events, and social gatherings in Beagle Bay, and is a tourism attraction to the region.
