Germany’s Bavaria Orders Christian Crosses in All State Buildings

---

The German state of Bavaria has ordered Christian crosses to be placed at the entrances to its public buildings.

Premier Markus Söder said Crosses should not be seen as religious symbols but as a “clear avowal of our Bavarian identity and Christian values“.

But opponents said the ruling Christian Social Union (CSU) was trying to score points ahead of October’s election amid fears of a rise of the far right.

Crosses are compulsory in public school classrooms and courtrooms.

The decree, which comes into effect on 1 June, will not affect municipal and federal government buildings in the predominantly Roman Catholic southern state.

“The cross is a fundamental symbol of our Bavarian identity and way of life,” Mr Söder said in a statement (in German). “It stands for elemental values ​​such as charity, human dignity and tolerance.“

He denied the measure violated constitutional rules about religious neutrality and, on Twitter, said he had placed a cross in the lobby of the state chancellery in Munich.
