The monuments at the Hope Cemetery in Barre are more than just gravestones. These works of art come from the nearby Rock of Ages granite quarry.
Youth Triumphant, better known as the whispering statue, has a unique characteristic.

I can personally vouch for this phenomenon. Despite being next to a noisy 5 way stop light, it works perfectly.
Just two blocks away from the whispering statue in Barre you can find the world's largest zipper.
