Statue of The Blessing Christ, Tarcal
The largest granite statue of Jesus in Europe is found on a hill above the Old Cemetery of Tarcal since 2015. The statue is called the Blessing Christ. The 8.5 meters tall and 50 tons heavy work resembles to Christ the Redeemer in Rio de Janeiro.
You can walk to the monument via a shorter 377 meters route, or a longer, 561 meters route.
Reaching the top of the hill, you will enjoy a full panoramic view to the village, vineyards and nearby lake. You may see the Alföld on the horizon.
The statue is part of the 1400 km long Central European pilgrimage, called the Mária-út. A small levander field attracts the eyes around the statue, especially when flowering.
You will not be disappointed if arriving in the evening, because the illuminated work paints a completely ethereal picture.
The statue is open all time. The route is well-signed, even from the main road of Tarcal. The municipality organizes electric vehicles to take elderly and disabled people to the statue on weekends and holidays. The pick-up point is at the parking lot of Könyves Kálmán út.
