Kościół św. Marcina w Poznaniu, Gothic church in central Poznań, Poland
The Saint Martin Church features three naves with brick walls, Gothic vaults, and a chancel decorated with stained glass windows created in 1960.
The first written records of the church date back to 1252, predating the official founding of Poznań, with the current Gothic structure constructed in the early 16th century.
The main altar contains a Gothic triptych from 1498, displaying the Madonna with Child, Saint John the Baptist, and Saint Catherine figures crafted by Silesian artisans.
The church houses three historical bells in its wooden tower, including a Renaissance bell from 1563, a Saint Andrew bell from 1718, and a Mother of God bell from 1747.
A bronze relief above the main entrance depicts Saint Martin on horseback, created by sculptor Edward Haupt in 1953 following the post-war reconstruction.
