In heraldry, the Cross of Saint James, also called the Santiago cross or the ''cruz espada'', is a charge in the form of a cross. It combines a cross fitchy (the lower limb is pointed, as if to be driven into the ground) with either a cross fleury (the arms end in fleurs-de-lys) or a cross moline〔 (the ends of the arms are forked and rounded). Most notably, a red Cross of Saint James with flourished arms, surmounted with an escallop,〔 was the emblem of the twelfth-century Spanish military Order of Santiago, named after Saint James the Greater. It is also used as a decorative element on the ''Tarta de Santiago'', a traditional Galician sweet. == Gallery == File:Cross-Flory-Heraldry.svg|Cross fleury File:Croix fichée.svg|Cross fitchy File:St James Cross.svg|Cross of Saint James File:Cross Santiago.svg|Cross of Saint James as used by the Order of Santiago File:Jacobuskruis volgens Stalins en Graafland.svg|Cross of Saint James from the heraldic atlas of Jhr.
