Sculptures







Religious artwork and sculptures are also all around. I'll skip the many statues of saints for now, and focus on some of the more interesting ones. The cross is the huge one I mentioned earlier. It completely dominates the left wall of the chapel - probably 10 or 12 feet high. There is an interesting low sculpture set into the forest floor down near the river. A marble sculpture of the hand of God in the pilgrim hall, and a large statue of Mary just as you go down to the crypt. While not pictured, there are many little pieces of sculpture, bas relief, etc. all around the place.
