Christ The King, Świebodzin, Poland

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.
Project
The designs for various elements of the statue were produced by a number of individuals; the sculpture design was primarily produced by Mirosław Kazimierz Patecki with the technical design aspect being undertaking by Assoc. Marcinowski James and Assoc. Nicholas Kłapeć, both of whom are employees of the University of Zielona Gora. Meanwhile elements of the clothing and the arms of the statue were designed by Thomas Corano and Chris Nawojski (the latter being of the town of Świebodzin) respectively. Another resident of Świebodzin, Marian Chosen, was responsible for the design of the foundations upon which the statue was constructed.
