This church originally was built in the second half of 14th century and it has castle-like appearance. It is a good example of Warmia Gothic architecture . It is located just a short walk from the old square.The beautiful interior includes Gothic, late-Renaissance, and Baroque art elements. The bronze 2000 door is the new addition and complements the much older character of the church. This beautiful house of worship features often organ concerts but the easiest way to hear it is during the mass. Masses take place here daily several times a day.

Large bricked church, located at fortified hill in Frombork, dating back to mid 14th century. Entrance to the church from the courtyard, which is the main place in whole Frombork. Tickets are sold at the entry porch (tickets to the Bell Tower or Radziejowski tower are also sold here). Monumental interior includes about 20 altars, with the main one form 18th century. This is the place, where Nicolaus Copernicus was buried - for the first time soon after his death, and then again in 2010, after the rediscovery of his remains. The biggest attraction of its own are pipe organs, so it is worth every effort to stay in the cathedral long enough to experience an pipe organ concert (few times a day, tue-sun may-september, hours on cathedral web site). The whole cathedral hill (or castle hill for some) is closed for motorised traffic. Car parks are located at the bottom of the hill, close to the port. Frombork is a very small town, so those furthest car parking spaces are only dew minutes walk away. Cathedral hill in Frombork is inscrbed onto a list of Pomnik historii (historic monuments list) - highest recognition in Poland for heritage buildings - since the very beginning of that list, in 1994.

The tower is part of the complex but free standing. The challenge of the spiral staircase is worth it. The view is your reward. Foucault pendulum - they are so rare to see! -is another attraction of this place.

There's a little bit of history there. It only takes a few minutes to get to the top and when you get there, you can enjoy the view )
