description This image is part of a series of colorized photographs of the Ave Maria Grotto in Cullman, Alabama. Postcard text: (front) Grotto of the Little Flower of Lisieux. From folder: Brother Joseph Zoettl, O.S.B., a Benedictine monk at Saint Bernard Abbey, began experiments with concrete miniatures early in the 20th century. Abbot Bernard Menges, recognizing the popularity of Bro. Joseph's work, ordered construction of a park on the hillside in front of Saint Bernard College next to the abbey to display the miniatures. The park, begun in 1932 and named the Ave Maria Grotto, has five sections: the Main Grotto, Palestinian Miniatures, Little Jerusalem, Italian Miniatures, and Modern Shrines and Missions of the Southwest.
