The National Shrine of Our Lady of the Snows was built from 1958-1960. The three arms that create the modernist steeple represent the letter "M" for Mary. The teardrop that comes down from the spire represents the Holy Spirit. There are two chapels under the shrine. For more, see these websites: 1 and 2. [map] |
