St. Martin's Church in Wrocław, Medieval church in Wrocław, Poland
The brick church stands on an island in central Wrocław, featuring an irregular layout and compact dimensions that distinguish it from other religious structures.
Built in 1280 by architect Wiland, this church remains the sole surviving structure from the former Piast dynasty Royal Castle complex.
The church functioned as a gathering place for Polish Catholics until 1939, allowing them to conduct services in their native language during German rule.
Visitors can reach the church by crossing the bridge to the island, with regular mass schedules posted at the entrance.
A large monument to Pope John XXIII stands outside the church walls since 1986, marking the religious and historical connection to Catholic heritage.
