Cross of Nails Coventry

Coventry was hit by a German bomb raid on November 14th, 1940, during which the cathedral was almost totally destroyed.
Churches that also were destroyed during World War Two have been connected to the cathedral in Coventry by the Coventry Counsel and by the Cross of Nails.
This Cross of Nails has been composed of nails that originate from the roof of the burned down cathedral but now represent Hope.

Churches in Rotterdam, The Hague – Bezuidenhout, Nijmegen and Middelburg are in the treasured possession of the Cross of nails.
