From Wikipedia:

 

The Billy Graham Library is a public museum and library documenting the life and ministry of Christian evangelist Billy Graham. The 40,000-square-foot (3,700 m2) complex[1] opened to the public on June 5, 2007.[2] The library is located on the grounds of the international headquarters of the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association in Charlotte, North Carolina, a few miles from where Graham was reared. The library is styled after a dairy barn, with a mechanical “talking” cow, to reflect Graham’s farm-based childhood.[1]

The main galleries within the library showcase numerous presentations, pictures, music, artifacts, and voices from throughout Graham’s ministry. One gallery is entirely devoted to Ruth Bell Graham, the wife of the evangelist. There is a dairy bar café and bookstore called “Ruth’s Attic.” All visitors enter the Library through doors at the base of a 40-foot (12 m) glass cross. Also located on the Library grounds is the Prayer Garden, where Ruth Graham was buried on June 17, 2007.
