Symbol 24:51

2426

24:51 · This is the patriarchal cross, a symbol for the Roman Catholic Church. It can, as here, appear in the form of a threefoil cross (2637a is a symbol for the Holy Trinity). It can also have other forms.
    In heraldry the patriarchal cross looks different. The arms are of the same or almost the same length, and it resembles the heraldic version of the cross of Lorraine. See 2862 in Group 28.
