Toruń Cathedral, Gothic cathedral in Torun, Poland

The brick cathedral features two tall towers, with the main tower reaching 46 meters and containing the medieval Tuba Dei bell weighing 7500 kg.

The construction of the cathedral started in the 13th century after a wooden church burned down, with major expansions continuing through the 14th century.

The cathedral holds numerous medieval wall paintings from the 14th century, including depictions of Saint John the Baptist and Saint John the Evangelist.

Visitors can climb the tower for panoramic views of Torun, while guided tours provide information about the architectural elements and historical artifacts.

The cathedral houses the heart of King John Albert of Poland, preserved since 1501, and contains memorials connected to astronomer Nicolaus Copernicus.
