Białystok Cathedral, Gothic Revival cathedral in Białystok, Poland.
The red brick Cathedral of the Assumption extends 90 meters in length and features two towers reaching 72.5 meters into the sky.
Construction of the cathedral began in 1900 after receiving approval from Tsar Nicholas II during his visit to Białystok that year.
The cathedral forms a complex with an older church from 1726, known as the white church, representing different architectural periods in Polish religious buildings.
The cathedral maintains space for 9,500 visitors and connects to Kościuszko market square through three separate stone staircases across the retaining wall.
The cathedral survived World War II with minimal damage while most of Białystok experienced severe destruction during the conflict.
