How could you not stop and see Albert the Bull? After driving for hours it was a nice place to pull over and have a picnic lunch and let the kids stretch their legs on the playground.
If in Iowa your road trip isn’t complete without stopping to see Albert, the World’s Largest Bull,
He’s in a small town called Audubon. He was built in the summer of 1964. He is 28 feet tall and has a 15-foot span between horns.
He weighs 45 tons, and most of it is solid concrete. The steelwork that forms his mighty frame was salvaged from abandoned Iowa windmills. You can push a button in the information kiosk next to Albert’s parking lot
he tells you that he was built as a replica of the perfect Hereford bull, nine times larger than life-size and “authentic right down to my toenails.” According to the voice of Albert, 20,000 people visit him every Year

Albert, the bull statue is an impressive and well preserved and maintained statue on the outskirts of Audubon, Iowa. It is not fancy, but I love the fact that it as well kept it represents the kitsch of American culture.
Access is easy from the highway and the parking is fine.
This was quite the experience, we saw a trailer with cows in it and one of them mood at us. It was funny, I loved this place. It also had a little booth that you push a button and it moos and it tells u about Albert.
Beloved world famous rest stop, an icon of Idaho’s economic history, and a work of artistic 60s style mastery can be found in our, now dearest friend, Albert the Bull.
Larger than one thinks, this bull looks over waves of crop and the town of Audubon with a such sweet demeanor.
The information kiosks are surprisingly thorough and give important restaurant and boutique information on the local flair.
To note, Albert has quite the anatomical correctness, and we are sadly remissed to have failed to obtain “the” photo. 😜 Hehe.
If someone finds themselves in need of Albert merchandise, look no further than that of the Bakery, which has cups, mugs, magnets, and stickers with iconography of this gentle giant.
