Art and natural come together on the beautiful grounds of Forest Lawn Memorial Park in Covina, California. Located in central California, Forest Lawn Covina Hills is part of the well-known Forest Lawn Memorial-Parks and Mortuaries that was first started in 1906. Known for having outstanding religious art, Forest Lawn Covina Hills has the world?s largest religious mosaic, the Life of Christ Mosaic. Its Mausoleum of Christian Heritage is also home to mosaic recreations of some of the scenes from Michelangelo?s famous Sistine Chapel. Also on the grounds of Forest Lawn Covina Hills is a recreation of the St. George Church. The original, found in Fredericksburg, Virginia, was where such famous historical figures as George Washington, James Monroe and John Paul Jones worshipped. The church also contains art, memorabilia and letters written by both James Monroe and John Paul Jones and is also used for christenings and weddings. With a vision for a ?memorial-park? setting, Forest Lawn Covina Hills is dedicated to providing a tranquil place where those at rest are honored. From the replica of Donatello?s St. George located near the park entrance to the rolling hills and shaded trees, Forest Lawn Covina Hills offers family and friends a place to memorialize their loved ones and spend quiet, peaceful times in reflection. |
