Ave Maria Grotto in Cullman, Alabama

The Ave Maria Grotto in Cullman, Alabama is a very interesting display of handiwork.  It is listed on the National Register of Historic Sites.  The grotto sits on a four acre landscaped park and contains more than 125 miniature replicas of biblical structures and world famous buildings.  It is located at Alabama’s only Benedictine Abbey with a church and monastery.

Thank you Brother Joseph Zoettl for creating this beautiful work of art.  Pictures really don’t capture the scene, but here is a sample of what I had the opportunity to see.
