Church and Monastery of St. Adalbert

The Church and Monastery of Saint Adalbert stands out in the Wrocław skyline for its tall, slender tower, topped with a distinctively sharp, pointed helmet. This massive brick structure, built in the Gothic style, has been a central fixture of the city since the early thirteenth century when it was entrusted to the Dominican Order. Its deep red brickwork reflects the complex, layered history of a site that was once the first church established on the left bank of the Oder River.
