Golgotha Cross Flag – Orthodox Calvary Cross (3x5 ft)

The Golgotha Cross Flag honors the Cross of Christ raised on Golgotha (Calvary), the hill outside Jerusalem where our Lord was crucified. For Orthodox Christians the Golgotha cross is not a sign of defeat but of Christ's victory over death.

What is the Golgotha cross?
In Orthodox tradition, the Golgotha cross is the three-bar cross shown standing on the hill of Calvary. It is often accompanied by the skull of Adam — recalling the tradition that Adam was buried beneath the place of the Crucifixion — along with the spear and the sponge of the Passion, and inscriptions such as IC XC NIKA ("Jesus Christ conquers"). The same cross appears on the Great Schema worn by Orthodox monastics.
