Kreuzkirche, Lutheran church at Altmarkt Square, Dresden, Germany

The Kreuzkirche is a Lutheran church at Altmarkt in Dresden, the largest church building in Saxony. Its west tower rises 92 meters, with a green copper onion dome and a clock with a blue face. The interior is a tall hall of pale grey stone with pointed arches on round columns and ribbed vaults; a sign reads "Turmbesteigung CD-Verkauf".

A Romanesque basilica stood at the southeastern corner of the Dresden market from the twelfth century; a side chapel named for a cross relic given by Constance of Babenberg was first mentioned in 1319, and the church was dedicated to the Holy Cross in 1388. Rebuilt as a Gothic hall church from 1401, it burned in 1491 and was rebuilt under Conrad Pflüger from 1499. Prussian bombardment in 1760 destroyed the Gothic choir; Johann George Schmidt laid the foundation stone for a Baroque rebuilding in 1764, but after the westwork collapsed in 1765 Friedrich August Krubsacius advised, and the church was consecrated in 1792.

The Kreuzchor, the boys' choir based here, is led by a director titled Kreuzkantor; Martin Lehmann has held the post since 2022, the 28th since the Reformation. The choir sings at services and the church serves as the preaching venue of Saxony's Lutheran bishop. A sign inside reads "Turmbesteigung CD-Verkauf", pointing to tower climbs and CD sales.

The church welcomes visitors and offers access to the tower with views across Dresden's historic center. Regular concerts and organ performances take place throughout the year, providing different ways to experience the interior.

The tower holds five bells cast by Franz Schilling of Apolda in 1899, hung on three separate floors; the largest was modelled on Erfurt Cathedral's Gloriosa. Two scythe bells for the quarter-hour and hourly chimes date from 1787. A sign at the nave's lower right reads "Turmbesteigung CD-Verkauf", pointing to tower climbs and CD sales.
