The "Majestic Cross" is a proposed 100-foot-tall cross which will be located on the campus of Hunter's Chapel Holy Church of Christ in Walker County and visible from I-22. The idea of erecting a monumental cross came to pastor Dale Hyche when he saw a similar structure during a drive near Gatlinburg, Tennessee. He presented the plan to the church's board of deacons who approved it and began raising funds for the estimated $232,000 cost. A prayer garden and walkway are planned at the cross's base. Construction is set to begin in February 2010 with completion 12 to 14 weeks later.
