Will Rogers Shrine of the Sun, also known as Will Rogers Shrine, is a commemorative tower and chapel on Cheyenne Mountain in Colorado Springs. It is named for Will Rogers, the American humorist, who died in a plane crash in Alaska in 1935 during construction of the shrine. It is also a tomb for the remains of Spencer Penrose, who built many of the city's prominent properties, including the neighboring Cheyenne Mountain Zoo and The Broadmoor resort. Completed by Penrose in 1937, the shrine is a 100 feet, five story observation tower that overlooks The Broadmoor, Colorado Springs, and Garden of the Gods.
