Kościół św. Jana w Gdańsku, Gothic church in Main Town, Gdańsk, Poland

The Church of St. John exhibits Brick Gothic architecture with a 47-meter tower, stretching 55 meters in length and 20 meters in width.

The church's construction started in 1360, reaching completion in the early 15th century, with the tower added during the Thirteen Years' War.

The church functions as a cultural center, hosting exhibitions, performances, and film screenings while maintaining its religious heritage since the 14th century.

Located at 50 Świętojańska Street, the church opens its doors for visitors to explore its Gothic architecture and attend cultural events throughout the year.

After surviving severe damage in March 1945, the church underwent extensive renovation until 2012, funded partially by European Union with 11.3 million zloty.
