Federal Administrative Court - Ruling on cross decree in Bavaria to be announced

The Federal Administrative Court is set to announce its decision on the controversial cross decree by Bavaria's Minister President Markus Söder (CSU) this Tuesday (1.30 pm). According to the regulation, a cross must be clearly visible in the entrance area of every state building in Bavaria since 2018. The religion-critical Association for Freedom of Thought (bfg) has filed a lawsuit against this. Last week, the Federal Administrative Court in Leipzig held an oral hearing on whether the crosses are an infringement of religious freedom or violate the right to equal treatment of other ideological communities.
