TALLEST CROSS IN THE WORLD | NORTH MACEDONIA MILLENNIUM CROSS | VODNO MOUNTAIN BALKAN EUROPE REGION
The Millennium Cross (Macedonian: Милениумски крст, Mileniumski krst) is a 66-metre (217 ft) tall cross situated on the top of Vodno Mountain in the Republic of North Macedonia above the capital city of Skopje. It is one of the tallest crosses in the world. It was constructed to serve as a memorial for 2,000 years of Christianity in Macedonia and to honour biblical passages citing the evangelisation activities of St. Paul within the region.The monument has become a symbol associated with or representing Skopje.As a landmark, the cross has turned into a tourist destination with the best observation point to see the panorama of the capital city.
Design structure
The monument is based on a grid design, similar to the French Eiffel Tower and has the traditional shape of a Christian cross without other additions or elements. It is constructed on a twelve column platform symbolically representing the twelve apostles. Inside the cross there is an elevator to the top level for views of Skopje. From the south side of the city the towering Millennium Cross atop Vodno mountain dominates the panorama of Skopje. The monument is visible from almost all areas of the capital and its presence is felt by strolling urban residents or people entering the city as it draws focal attention.At night the cross can be seen as its covered in thousands of lights.
