Kreuzkirche
Church in Mitte, Germany, dating from 1284
The Church of the Holy Cross (German: Kreuzkirche) is a Lutheran church in the centre of Hanover, the capital of Lower Saxony, Germany. A Gothic hall church, it is one of three churches in Hanover's old town (Altstadt) – the other two being Market Church and Aegidien Church, although the latter is now a war memorial. During the Reformation the church became Lutheran. It was then expanded, and renovated in the 19th century. Destroyed by the bombings of Hanover in World War II, the Church of the Holy Cross was rebuilt in simpler form between 1959 and 1961. Receiving an altar by Lucas Cranach fro
