I'm not Christian, I'm actually Jewish. But it was really fun crossing country for the first time alone and to randomly come across this impressive monolith. A plaque on site claims it to be "the largest cross in the Western Hemisphere." It's 19 stories tall and visible from 20 miles away, but still shorter than 3 other crosses, one in Florida, Illinois, and finally Spain (technically Western Hemisphere). Even as a non Christian, I still really enjoyed this landmark. I'm sure those of the Christian faith will find this location very inspiring. Be sure to stop at this location if you're taking a long trip through Amarillo and Groom, Texas!

Truly inspirational. Our family loves watching for the first glimpse of this massive cross in the distance. Through the years more and more meaningful statues have been added. ✝️

It had a lot more than I was expecting. 14 stations, tomb replica, visitors center, statues etc. Worth the drive.
