Cathedral Basilica of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary, Łowicz
Cathedral Basilica of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary, Łowicz, Baroque cathedral in Łowicz, Poland
The cathedral features two seven-story towers with baroque domes, three naves, and a rectangular main body with an extended presbytery.
The first wooden church was established around 1100, later replaced by a Gothic structure in 1355 during the construction of the archbishop's castle.
The cathedral contains twelve archbishops' tombs, Renaissance gravestones, and significant artworks including sculptures by Jan Jerzy Plersch and paintings by Tomasz Dolabella.
The cathedral maintains regular visiting hours and houses a museum displaying religious artifacts, historical documents, and ceremonial objects in its treasury.
During interregnum periods from 1572, the cathedral temporarily served as the principal religious building of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth.
