It is the oldest preserved temple in Łowicz, its construction was mentioned in 1404 as a parish church for the New Town. Gothic building, single-nave, with a narrower presbytery. In 1559, the southern chapel of the shoemakers' guild was added. In 1620, the tower was built. In 1778, the western facade was rebuilt. The facade and the tower in the upper parts are late Baroque. In 1904, the tower was added. The interior furnishings are Baroque and eclectic from the turn of the 18th and 19th centuries.

In the northern part there is the so-called Primate's Gate from the mid-17th century with the Jastrzębiec coat of arms designed by Tomasz Poncino and the former dean's office, currently the seat of the Bishop of Łowicz. The western frontage is built up with a complex of canonries from the 16th-18th centuries with numerous foundation plaques. In the southern part there is a Renaissance tenement house of the Cebrowski family, their distinguished representative was Andrzej Kazimierz Cebrowski, a pharmacist, doctor, author of the first chronicle of the city "Annales Civitatis Loviciae". On the side of the courtyard at ul. Aptekarska there are Renaissance cloisters. For several centuries, the market square served a commercial function - since the Middle Ages, markets were held there - weekly and annual famous fairs. Once in the middle of the market square there was a Gothic, brick town hall, demolished around 1830. The market square is also a place of historical events. On the market square, on 24-25 October 1790, Tadeusz Kościuszko inspected the 9th Crown Infantry Regiment, and on 18 December 1806, Napoleon Bonaparte stopped in one of the tenement houses on his way to Warsaw after his victory at Jena and Auerstadt. There are two monuments on the market square: to the Sons of the Łowicz Region from 1927 and to Pope John Paul II unveiled in 2000.

On the site of the current Cathedral Basilica, a wooden church was probably built in the 12th century. In the 14th century, it was replaced by a single-nave brick church with elements of bog iron ore. The remains of the Gothic temple were discovered during archaeological research in 2015. The expansion to the form of a three-nave basilica took place in the second half of the 17th century, carried out by the Poncino brothers. The founder of the expansion, carried out "at a more magnificent expense than the king's", was Primate Maciej Łubieński. Over the centuries, distinguished European artists worked at the Łowicz collegiate church, including Hieronim Canavesi, Jan Michałowicz from Urzędów, Giovanni Battista Falconi, Tylman from Gameren, Konstanty Tencalla, Karol Bay, Efraim Szreger, Szymon Bogumił Zug, Jakub Fontanna, Jan Jerzy Plersch, Adam Swach. In 1992, the church became a Cathedral, and in 1999 it gained the rank of Basilica. In 2012, the Łowicz church was entered on the list of historical monuments.
