St. Mary's Cathedral, Romanesque cathedral in Gorzów Wielkopolski, Poland.
St. Mary's Cathedral is a brick structure with three naves, a western tower, and a baroque-style tower helmet added in 1621. Inside, a Renaissance-Mannerist winged altar from 1600 depicts the Last Supper, and the tower houses four bells named after virtues.
The church began in 1290 as a parish dedicated to the Virgin Mary and Eleven Thousand Virgins, then served as a Lutheran church from 1537 until 1945. This extended Protestant period shaped much of what visitors see today.
The cathedral contains a Renaissance-Mannerist triptych altar from 1600 depicting the Last Supper, representing significant religious artistry of the period.
The cathedral is best approached on foot and offers clear views from the town square nearby. Visiting during daylight hours allows you to see both the exterior details and the interior artworks properly.
The western doorway displays nails hammered by donors during a post-World War I campaign to support widows and orphans. This unusual memorial form remains visible and tells of community solidarity from that period.
