Christ The King, Świebodzin, Poland

Characteristics
It was built on a 16 metre embankment of stones and rubble. Christ the King has a height of 33 metres, symbolising a traditional belief that Jesus' age at his death was 33. The Crown of the temple is 3.5 metres in diameter and 2 m in height, and the whole is gilded. The head is 4.5 m tall and weighs 15 tons. Each hand is 6 m in length and the distance between the ends of the fingers is 24 metres. It is composed of plaster and fibreglass. If the crown is counted, it is the tallest statue of Jesus in the world, slightly taller than that of Cristo de la Concordia in Cochabamba, Bolivia, and significantly taller than the better known statue of Christ the Redeemer in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
