The Christ of the Ozarks is a monumental 65-foot-tall statue of Jesus Christ, standing with arms outstretched on a hilltop in Eureka Springs. Completed in 1966, it is a major pilgrimage site and a distinctive landmark visible from afar. Visitors can walk up to the base for an up-close view, admire the surrounding gardens, and reflect in the peaceful setting. The statue's sheer scale and serene expression make it a memorable stop for both religious and secular travelers.
