(Straßen)kreuzung (f)   

junction, crossroads

Most Germans just say "Kreuzung", meaning "crossing". 

to cross = kreuzen (kreuzen, kreuzte, gekreuzt -> "haben")

Please do not mix it up with "Kreuzigung", that is "crucification". Therefore "to crucify" is in German "kreuzigen" (kreuzigen, kreuzigte, gekreuzigt -> "haben").
