Gorgeous stop. Follow the Bible stories chronologically by going around the 2nd floor [of the mausoleum] clockwise, and then the 3rd floor clockwise.

The world's largest stained glass window is actually in the mausoleum at Resurrection Cemetery in Justice. It contains 2,448 panels and is a whopping 22,381 square feet.
As an added note, it is only a few short miles from the Stickney water reclamation plant, the largest (and in july and august the stinkiest) sewage treatment facility in the world.
