Gniezno, Medieval capital city in Greater Poland Voivodeship, Poland
The city extends across seven hills, with its center situated around Lech Hill, where the monumental Gniezno Cathedral stands at 100 meters elevation.
The Congress of Gniezno in 1000 marked a crucial diplomatic meeting between Polish ruler Bolesław I and Holy Roman Emperor Otto III, establishing Poland's church organization.
The Gniezno Cathedral features a bronze door from the 12th century that displays detailed scenes from Saint Adalbert's life through 18 panels.
The Museum of the Origins of the Polish State presents exhibits about early Polish history and maintains regular exhibitions about regional archaeological discoveries.
Archaeological evidence reveals continuous human settlement in the area since the late Paleolithic period, with early Slavic inhabitants occupying Lech Hill.
