The Iron Cross (German: Das eiserne Kreuz) is a 1914 German silent film directed by Richard Oswald and starring Friedrich Kühne, Hedda Vernon, and Hanni Weisse. It marked the directorial debut of Oswald.[1]
It was shot at the Tempelhof Studios.
Despite its patriotic name, the film was seized by the German authorities and all its copies were destroyed due to the film's pacifist nature.[2]
