The Cross of the Martyrs refers to either of two cross-shaped monuments erected in the 20th century in
Ralph Emerson Twitchell, Edgar L. Street, and Warren G. Turley, using reinforced concrete.[2] The cross was dedicated during the 1920 Fiestas de Santa Fe. The Historic Santa Fe Foundation and the Fiesta Council commissioned a second Cross of the Martyrs in 1994, made of steel, near Fort Marcy
