October 25, 2025, Katedra Gnieźnieńska (Bazylika Archikatedralna Wniebowzięcia Najświętszej Maryi Panny i św. Wojciecha)

Gniezno Cathedral is considered one of the most important religious buildings in Poland. Since the 15th century, the church has served as both the seat of the Archbishop of Gniezno and the Primate of Poland. The Gniezno Double Doors, made of bronze, are of great significance on a European scale.

The original bronze monument was designed by sculptor Marcin Rożek and unveiled by President Ignacy Mościcki on May 30, 1929, but was destroyed by German forces during the 1939 September Campaign. The current monument, standing 4.75 meters tall on a nearly 4-meter pedestal, was recreated by sculptor Jerzy Sobociński based on the original design and unveiled on May 9, 1985.

The sculpture was unveiled on 2018 as the final piece of Gniezno's Royal Route project, depicting Poland's first king who was crowned in 1025. The statue stands in front of the Old Town Hall on Chrobrego Street, representing the ruler who led the famous Congress of Gniezno in 1000 AD when Emperor Otto III visited the city. This is the third sculpture commemorating Bolesław the Brave in Gniezno, completing a collection of five royal statues honoring kings crowned here.

The Market Square is located in the Old Town on Panieński Hill, one of Gniezno. After a devastating fire in 1819 that destroyed most of Gniezno, the square was rebuilt according to new urban planning that created a spatial axis between the cathedral and the evangelical church, with only two original medieval buildings surviving. Today the cobblestone square features a fountain inaugurated in 2014, and during winter months it hosts a 10-12 meter Christmas tree and an ice rink that has operated since 2008.

A Gothic archcathedral located on Lech Hill, serving as the burial place of Saint Adalbert and the site of five royal coronations since 1000 AD. Known as the "Mother of Polish Churches," it has been the seat of Polish primates and was designated as a minor basilica in 1931. The cathedral houses the famous Gniezno Doors, bronze doors from around 1175 that depict scenes from Saint Adalbert's life.
