A hilltop sculpture garden above Kerrville, anchored by “The Empty Cross” — a towering Corten-steel cross you can see from I-10 — with monumental sculptures, prayer gardens, and a long Hill Country view. Free to visit.
On a hill off I-10, the Coming King Sculpture Prayer Garden gathers large-scale bronze and steel work around its centerpiece, the 77-foot Empty Cross. The grounds are free, the views run for miles, and it is as much an overlook as a garden.
The Corten-steel cross stands about 77 feet and is the piece you spot from the highway; up close it anchors a whole sculpture park.
The hilltop setting opens long views over Kerrville and the surrounding hills — worth the short climb up from the lot.
The garden is free to walk; check the official site for hours and any events.
The garden sits on a hill just off I-10 at the edge of Kerrville.
