Pelplin, Medieval cathedral city in Pomeranian Voivodeship, Poland
The Gothic Pelplin Cathedral rises above the Wierzyca River valley, displaying intricate stone craftsmanship and architectural elements from the 13th century.
The Cistercian monks established their monastery in Pelplin during 1274 under the patronage of Mestwin II, Duke of Pomerania, marking the beginning of settlement.
The Diocesan Museum houses medieval manuscripts, including one of the few remaining original copies of the Gutenberg Bible in existence.
The cathedral complex and museum remain open for visitors throughout the year, with guided tours available in multiple languages through the tourist information center.
The cathedral library contains over 50,000 volumes of historical texts, making it one of the largest ecclesiastical collections in northern Poland.
