One of the most important historical monuments of Wielkopolska (Greater Poland) is the Cathedral. That's where St Adalbert is buried. It is also the coronation church for many Polish kings. Among them are the first Polish coronations in history: of Boleslaw Chrobry (the Brave) and Mieszko II, both in 1025; Boleslaw the Bold in 1076; Przemysl II in 1295, and Vencelas of Bohemia in 1300.
It is said that the Cathedral was originally built in the 10th century but no one can give exact dates. However we know that reconstruction works were done in the late half of the 11th century giving a three-aisle Romanesque stone basilica with two towers. The towers are 64 metres high.
