It is the jewel among Zittau's churches and has retained its current appearance since 1410. The star vault is particularly beautiful inside, with its ribs converging in a single central pillar (single-pillar church, high Gothic). Zittau's greatest treasure, the "Great Zittau Lenten Veil" from 1472, is located in the Cross Church. Its type and design are unique in Germany and represent one of the most important cultural treasures of the Middle Ages.

Hiking

In addition to the Great Lenten Cloth in the Museum Church of the Holy Cross, even the little one should not be forgotten in the Cultural History Museum Franciscan Monastery
