Gdansk, Poland

Gdansk Oliwa Archcathedral is dedicated to The Holy Trinity, Blessed Virgin Mary, and St. Bernard.

The façade is flanked by two towers, 46-metres tall each, with sharply-edged helmets.
The cathedral is 17.7m high, 19m wide and 107m long (97.6m of the interior itself), which makes it the longest Cistercian church in the world.
It holds works of art in Renaissance, Baroque, Rococo and Classical style of great artistic value.
