Divine Mercy Park

This serene, hidden park is home to the largest Divine Mercy statue in the United States, a 25-foot-tall, 8,000-pound stainless steel sculpture of Jesus by artist Dale Lamphere. The park also features a 'Garden of Crosses' made from dead trees and repurposed light poles, alongside 150-year-old Stations of the Cross rescued from a collapsing monastery wall.

The move: Walk the peaceful path around the park's lake, find a memorial bench to sit and chat, and explore the unique, folk-art-like Garden of Crosses under the giant steel gaze of the monument.
