Marx condemns Bavarian crosses

Bavaria's new  Minister President Markus Söder has said that the cross is a fundamental symbol of Bavarian identity.

The Bavarian state has ordered all government buildings to display a cross at their entrance.

The decision has been criticised by Archbishop of Munich Cardinal Reinhard Marx.

He told the Süddeutsche Zeitung  that the decision has triggered "division, trouble and played people off against one another."
