Kwidzyn Cathedral, Gothic cathedral in Kwidzyn, Poland

The cathedral features a three-nave pseudo-basilica design with a polygonal presbytery and a 59-meter bell tower constructed from red brick materials.

Construction of the cathedral began in the first half of the 14th century after Pope established the diocese of Pomezania in 1243.

Medieval wall paintings inside the cathedral depict religious scenes, including the Mother of God and notable Pomezanian bishops from the region.

The cathedral complex includes Gothic cellars that house temporary exhibitions and collections related to the Powisle region of Poland.

The structure combines ecclesiastical and military elements, forming a unified fortified complex with the adjacent Castle of the Pomesan Chapter.
