The Haserot Angel

Known as 'The Angel of Death Victorious,' this haunting life-sized bronze monument by sculptor Herman Matzen appears to weep black tears due to the natural oxidation of the bronze.

The move: Stroll through the historic, arboretum-like cemetery to find the Mark Hanna monument where the weeping angel sits, then pay your respects to local legends like Eliot Ness and John D. Rockefeller nearby.
