Collegiate Church of Mary Magdalene in Poznań, Gothic collegiate church in Poznań, Poland

The Collegiate Church of Mary Magdalene is a church building in Poznań with a three-nave layout, transept, and internal galleries dividing the space. The interior features barrel vaults decorated with detailed ornamental work throughout.

The building was founded in 1303 and initially served as a place for teaching and education in medieval Poznań. Later it became a preaching venue for other religious groups, marking its changing role in city life.

The church is experienced today through its ornate interior decoration and artworks that shaped the city's religious life over centuries. Visitors notice how the baroque additions layer over the earlier structure, showing different periods of artistic taste.

The church is located in Poznań's Old Town and is generally open for visitors to explore the interior spaces. Visiting in the morning light helps you see the ornamental details on the walls and vaults more clearly.

The interior holds a Late Gothic crucifix from the early 1500s that has survived to the present day. The painted dome above is particularly striking, showing Saint Stanislaus rising to heaven in a way that tricks the eye.
