A true landmark for the Alexandria Area, residents and visitors alike take pride and have fun with our 28 foot tall statue standing guard on the shores of Lake Agnes. As a symbol of a unique and controversial American discovery story, one thing is for sure…Big Ole is also a symbol of our community through time. While his 51 year history has been challenging at times, Alexandria has always and will always rise up for our favorite giant Viking! The photo below is a sneak peak of him before he is completely finished. You can view a live video feed of Big Ole on our website’s Live Camera Feed!
