About this clipart
The Iron Cross is a black cross pattée with flared arms, originally established by King Frederick William III of Prussia in 1813 to honor bravery in wartime. It has since been reissued in various forms during the Franco-Prussian War, World Wars I and II, and remains a recognized emblem in military history, heraldry, and even modern subcultures. Though often associated with militarism, its design predates Nazi usage and carries broader cultural significance.
