Millennium Spire - National Shrine of Our Lady of Snows - Belleville, Illinois - Made for the Millennium on Waymarking.com

From the Shrine's website:
"Pope John Paul II urged us to prepare for the Great Jubilee 2000 as a time full of hope, "a new springtime of Christianity." In response to the Pope's call, an 85' tall Millennium Spire was constructed and rises out of a Candelarium built at the top of the hill overlooking the Shrine's Amphitheatre."
