Archcathedral Basilica of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary and Saint Andrew in Frombork

Archcathedral Basilica of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary and Saint Andrew in Frombork, Gothic cathedral in Frombork, Poland

The three-nave brick cathedral spans 97 meters in length and reaches heights of 16.5 meters with its red brick walls and vaulted ceilings.

The cathedral construction began in 1329 and concluded in 1388, replacing an earlier wooden church that served as the diocesan center since 1288.

The cathedral houses notable artworks, including painted epitaphs from 1426 and burial plates of Warmian bishops within its Gothic walls.

The cathedral opens for religious services and guided tours through the Frombork Cathedral Complex Museum, with regular mass schedules throughout the week.

The remains of astronomer Nicolaus Copernicus rest within the cathedral walls, marking his final connection to the place where he conducted research.
