Der, die or das?

das Kreuz

neuter noun · cross · level A2

The plural

die Kreuze - in the plural, every German noun takes the article die.

Why das?

"Kreuz" doesn't follow any of the 35 gender rules - it belongs to the words you learn together with their article, as one unit: das Kreuz. That's exactly what the app's spaced repetition is for.
