Introduction
Text-to-speech Audio
Located in out-of-the-way West Bend, Iowa, this jewel is truly a wonder to behold. Nine separate grottos depict the life of Christ in stone, jewels, petrified wood, gold leaf, and precise handy work. A labor of love and a massive work of art, this site took more than 40 years to construct. The result is an inspired marvel of creativity and ingenuity.
