Can you get on top of the Jesus statue?
Can you get on top of the Jesus statue? The Christ statue is a sanctuary (the first open-air sanctuary in the world) administered by the Catholic Church. Therefore, you need special authorization from the Guardian of the Sanctuary and the Bishop to climb (which is not very easy to achieve unless you have a contact inside the Church).
Can you go inside Jesus tomb?
There are 2 separate chambers. The first is the Chapel of the Angel with a pedestal displaying a piece of the stone that was used to close the tomb. From there you'll enter the actual tomb chamber through a low doorway.
Has anyone opened the tomb of Jesus?
