Heilig-Kreuz-Kirche, Gothic Revival church in Zweibrücken, Germany.
The Heilig-Kreuz-Kirche features a freestanding bell tower with a pyramidal roof containing six bells cast by Hermann Hamm in 1959.
The church, designed by architect Franz Jakob Schmitt, was constructed between 1869 and 1879, then reconstructed after severe damage during World War II.
The interior underwent modifications in 1987 following Vatican II reforms, with the removal of several altars and communion rails to adapt to liturgical changes.
The Rieger organ, consecrated in 1995, contains 44 registers and 3,003 pipes, providing music for religious services and concerts throughout the year.
The church houses an 18th-century crucifix and a painting of Mary created by Johann Christian von Mannlich in 1821.
