Christ of the Ozarks Statue Eureka Springs
This 67-foot-tall concrete Christ statue stands on Magnetic Mountain overlooking Eureka Springs, Arkansas. Built in 1966, the statue weighs 340 tons and serves as a landmark visible from Highway 62 and surrounding valleys. The observation area offers panoramic views across the Boston Mountains and White River valley, making it a popular photo stop for overlanders threading through the Ozark backcountry.
Access is via a paved road that winds up Magnetic Mountain from downtown Eureka Springs. The parking area accommodates larger rigs, though spaces fill quickly during summer tourist season and October leaf season. Open year-round with no entry fee, though the adjacent Passion Play amphitheater operates seasonally.
