Facts About Christ the Redeemer (Statue, Brazil) For Kids

Basic Information & Location

Christ the Redeemer stands tall on Corcovado Mountain in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, watching over the entire city like a friendly giant with open arms!

The statue of Christ the Redeemer is so big (38 m (125 ft)) tall that it’s the same height as a 13-story building — that’s taller than 10 school buses stacked on top of each other!

Christ the Redeemer was finished in 1931, which means this amazing statue has been watching over Rio de Janeiro for over 90 years!
