    Tips

    The Evangelical Lutheran Church of the Cross in Suhl in Thuringia was built between 1731 and 1739.
    The Protestant hall building is designed in the Baroque style. The striking three-story church tower has a tail cap with a lantern and is crowned by a weather vane in the shape of the Polish eagle. The sovereign at the time was Elector Frederick Augustus I of Saxony and King of Poland. The three-part coat of arms above the entrance portal is a fantasy creation.[1] It shows elements of the Saxon coat of arms with the diamond wreath and the Electorate of Saxony swords, the Polish eagle and a hen, the heraldic animal of the Henneberg counts, and above it the Saxon crown.
