The Cross of Caravaca, also commonly called by its Spanish name, Cruz De Caracava is a symbol rich in historical significance, devotional potency, and practical ritual power. Whether used an image for devotion, as a protective sigil or charm, an amulet or talisman, or any other number of spiritual practices, the legendary cross is beloved by spiritually minded individuals of many walks, cultures, and belief systems.

The Caravaca Cross with double cross bar, body of Christ, and two angels takes its name from Caravaca (now known as Caravaca de la Cruz), Spain, a town in the province of Murcia.

The Cross is a popular religious symbol in Mexico and is said to be the first Christian cross to be brought into the country.

Hispanic Christians believe the cross has special powers to grant wishes and prayers.

Franciscan missionaries brought the cross to the new world. In 1943, when the burial crypt of Father Serra (1713-1784), the Franciscan founder of the California missions, was opened, a Caravaca style relic cross was found.
