Millennium Cross in Zagórze − a monument in the form of a cross, located in Zagórze.

It was established in 2000 to commemorate the Great Jubilee of the Year 2000, and at the same time to celebrate the 250th anniversary of the existence of the parish in Zagórze. It weighs 45 tons, is 16 m high, and has an arm span of 3.2 m. It was placed on the top of a hill with a view of Stary Zagórz. On November 11, 2000, the cross was consecrated by Archbishop of Przemyśl, Józef Michalik.

A commemorative plaque was placed on the front of the cross with the following inscription: In the year of the great jubilee of the 2000th anniversary of the birth of Christ, in the 250th anniversary of the founding of the parish in Zagórze, in the year of the consecration of the church in Nowy Zagórze, the faithful of the parish in Zagórze. Zagorz November 11, 2000

In the past, on the hill nearby, from 1933, there was a cross erected on the anniversary of regaining independence in 1918, which was destroyed during World War II.
