The Carn Brea Easter Cross dates back to 1976, when a member of our congregation from Lanner had the idea to place a large cross on the hilltop.

Standing around 30 feet tall and positioned more than 700 feet above sea level, this Easter tradition has become a symbol to all the people of Redruth that the Cross still stands, the Cross still towers.

​

Each year, as the cross is raised above the town, it serves as a visible reminder of the hope at the heart of The Gospel message—that through the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, there is forgiveness, restoration, and new life available to all.

​

In a world where faith is often kept quiet or pushed aside, the cross on Carn Brea stands unashamedly, pointing beyond itself to the greatest act of love in history.

“For I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God that brings salvation to everyone who believes…” — Romans 1:16
