Gorzow: Katedra p.w. Wniebowzięcia Najświętszej Maryi Panny
The Cathedral of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary in Gorzów Wielkopolski combines austere Brick Gothic with the open civic character of a central square in a way that reflects its historic position at the heart of the city. Built in the second half of the 13th century, the red-brick church is Gorzów’s oldest surviving monument and has long defined its old-town streets. Its tall west tower and buttressed walls belong to the medieval building tradition of northern Poland. Gorzów extends along the Warta River in the Lubusz Voivodeship, while the cathedral square links the historic core with later urban development. The church became a cathedral in 1945 and remains an important symbol of religious life in western Poland.

Poland stretches from the Baltic Sea coast in the north to the Carpathian Mountains along its southern frontier, encompassing broad lowlands, lake districts and upland ranges. The Vistula, the country’s longest river, links Kraków and Warsaw before reaching the Baltic near Gdańsk, while the Masurian Lake District is defined by a dense network of lakes. Kraków’s historic centre, including Wawel Castle, recalls Poland’s former royal capital; Warsaw’s rebuilt Old Town speaks to the city’s recovery after the Second World War. The Białowieża Forest preserves one of Europe’s last primeval lowland forests and is home to European bison. Follow how Poland’s regions relate to one another by browsing webcams across the country.
