Holy Cross, Gothic parish church in Forstenried, Munich, Germany
The Holy Cross Church displays Gothic architectural elements with pointed arches, ribbed vaults, and a prominent spire reaching eighteen meters in height.
Constructed in 1500, the church structure incorporates designs by architect Kaspar Zuccalli and reflects the architectural preferences of medieval German builders.
Local parishioners gather in this religious center for weekly services, maintaining traditions that span over five centuries of continuous Christian worship.
The church welcomes visitors throughout the week, with access available through Munich public transportation routes that connect to the Forstenried district.
Red brick frescoes discovered during 1981 renovations include what experts consider the earliest artistic representation of Christ found in Bavaria.
