A Gothic cross is a symbol that blends religious and architectural elements from the Gothic era, which flourished in Europe during the 13th to 15th centuries. Gothic crosses were often made of stone or metal and adorned with intricate carved patterns and ornaments.

Characteristics of a Gothic cross include:

Pointed ends and angles: Gothic crosses tend to be more elongated, with sharp, pointed ends.

Gothic carving: Ornate details include intricate leaf patterns, geometric shapes, and sometimes images of saints or biblical scenes.

Stained glass: Some crosses might be adorned with stained glass, adding color and light.

Cross vaults: Found in architectural elements of Gothic cathedrals, where intersecting ribs support the structure.

This style symbolizes not only religious faith but also the grandeur and beauty of Gothic architecture. Unique crosses can be seen in famous Gothic cathedrals such as Notre-Dame de Paris or Cologne Cathedral.
