Construction has begun on a 180-foot statue of the Virgin Mary in Konotopie, Poland.

The statue of Mary itself is to be 133.2-feet high, sitting atop a pedestal in the form of a 50-foot-high crown.

The Christ the Redeemer in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, stands almost 100 feet tall, while Christ the King in Swiebodzin, Poland, stretches 108 feet high. 

Construction work is expected to take approximately 18 months.
