Kurutziagako gurutzea, Gothic stone cross in Durango, Spain.
The Kurutziagako cross stands 4.30 meters tall and displays intricate stone carvings depicting biblical scenes, apostles, and celestial symbols throughout its surface.
Built between the late 15th and early 16th centuries, the cross was moved to Bilbao during the 1937 bombing of Durango for protection.
The monument features detailed religious artworks, including representations of Adam and Eve, the sacred tree, and the Calvary with Jesus, Mary, and Saint John.
The cross resides in the Kurutzesantu Museum near the former location of Vera Cruz chapel, where visitors can examine its medieval stone craftsmanship.
The structure incorporates non-biblical elements at its summit, featuring distinct representations of the moon and sun in medieval Basque artistic style.
