The Holy Cross Church is a Church of Denmark parish church located at the corner of Kapelvej and Hans Tavsens Gade in the Nørrebro district of Copenhagen, Denmark. The church was built in 1887-1890 to a National Romantic design by Hermann Baagøe Storck.
In 1886, Københavns Præstekonvent decided to build a new church in the Rantzausgade/Kapelvej neighbourhood of Nørrebro. Further work with realizing the project was placed in the hands of a commission headed by provost Conrad Rothe and mayor Hans Hansen. The city donated a corner of the old cholera cemetery adjacent to Assistens Cemetery for the project. Funding for construction of the church building came partly from the city and partly from fund-raising among private citizens. One of the largest contributors was coffee wholesaler Gamél but also many local craftsmen made donations. The name was selected in 1887 and was inspired by the location at the end of the Korsgade , whose name had in turn been selected because it crossed Blågårdsgade.
