Sweden Church Unveiled 6-foot Lego Statue of Jesus
A Protestant church in Vasteras, Sweden, unveiled a 6-foot tall, 30,000 piece LEGO Jesus to celebrate Easter on Sunday. It took the 40 volunteers about 18 months to put all the tiny plastic blocks together, and their creation shows a standing Jesus facing forward with his arms outstretched. Church spokesman Per Wilder said the statue at the Onsta Gryta church in the central Swedish city of Vasteras is a copy of Danish sculptor Bertel Thorvaldsen’s “Christus” statue on display in Copenhagen.
