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.
