The Gniezno Cathedral, together with the Lech Hill, is one of the greatest monuments in Poland.
In 999, the funeral of St. Wojciech and his canonization by Pope Sylvester II. In 1000 to tomb of St. Wojciech, Emperor Otto III arrived and it was so-called The First Congress of Gniezno. The Archdiocese of Gniezno and the First Ecclesiastical Metropolis in Poland, subject only to the Pope, were created. The silver reliquary of Saint Adalbert is located in the center of the Gothic chancel of the cathedral.
In 1025, Bolesław Chrobry was crowned king here, and after his death, his son Mieszko II. In 1076, Bolesław II Szczodry was crowned king of Poland.
In the cathedral, there are the famous Gniezno Doors depicting the biography of St. Wojciech. In the basement of the cathedral, you can see the relics of a stone building from the end of the 9th century, discovered during archaeological research, and fragments of the walls of the Basilica of Mieszko I.
During the first centuries of the emerging statehood, Gniezno was the capital of Poland. The last coronation of the King of Poland, Prince Przemysł II was in 1295. Wacław II of Bohemia was also crowned king here in 1300 after the armed seizure of Gniezno. In 1331, the Teutonic Knights entered the first capital of Poland, destroying the city and the temple.

Katedra Gnieźnieńska wraz z Wzgórzem Lecha jest jednym z największych zabytków Polski.
W 999 roku odbył się pogrzeb św. Wojciecha oraz jego kanonizacja przez papieża Sylwestra II, a roku 1000 do grobu św. Wojciecha przybył cesarz Otton III. Odbył się wtedy tzw. I Zjazd Gnieźnieński. Utworzono archidiecezję gnieźnieńską i I metropolię kościelną w Polsce, podległą wyłącznie papieżowi. Srebrny relikwiarz świętego Wojciecha znajduje się w centrum gotyckiego prezbiterium katedry.
W 1025 roku koronował się tutaj na króla Bolesław Chrobry, a po jego śmierci syn Mieszko II. W 1076 roku na króla Polski koronował się Bolesław II Szczodry.
W katedrze znajdują się słynne Drzwi Gnieźnieńskie przedstawiające życiorys św. Wojciecha. W podziemiach katedry można zobaczyć odkryte podczas badań archeologicznych relikty budowli kamiennej z końca IX wieku oraz fragmenty murów bazyliki Mieszka I.
Przez pierwsze wieki tworzącej się państwowości, Gniezno było stolicą Polski. Ostatnia koronacja na króla Polski, księcia Przemysła II była w 1295 roku. Na króla koronował się tutaj również Wacław II Czeski w roku 1300 po zbrojnym zajęciu Gniezna. W 1331 roku do pierwszej stolicy Polski wkroczyli Krzyżacy, niszcząc miasto i świątynię.
The castle was built for is built on top of the Roman emperor Hadrian's mausoleum (built 2nd Century AD) and was converted into a papal fortress in the 14th century.
Wish you a happy coming weekend ( back monday:)

Subsequently to the act of donation of Pope Clement VIII in 1595, construction began of a new convent which was built according to the canonical scheme of the Order: a large cloister, a small cloister and the small dwellings (houses) for the monks.
The small cloister was obtained to the right of the chancel from the new church, in the place of the ancient natatio; the cells, however, were arranged on the western side, far from the exterior wall and along the perimeter of the cloister.
What a coincidence!
A Peaky Blinder and The Pope.
Question: Do they go hand in hand?
I don't think so, as you will notice a Snake around the Pope's neck.
So, Don't f*** with the Peaky Blinders.
As Peaky Blinders always wore Razor blades in their caps!
Many thanks for your killing compliments from you here, my good flickr friends !!!

Whose body Nature is,
And God the soul.

Neither of us had ever been to Lake Berryessa, so that just meant that it was time to go and explore.
We ended up on the "rougher" side of the lake, with all the resorts with their amenties (like boat rentals) on the other side. So we instead drove through Pope Valley on the way to Napa to reward ourselves for our adventuring spirit and back-roads dead reckoning with some wine.
This is a re-edit of an old picture from my album Collection of Cars. I have learned new things in the editing process and was able to improve the picture. We grow.
This old timer was on display at one of the local shows in the area. ...-- .----

Between 1309 and 1377 during the Avignon Papacy, seven successive popes resided in Avignon. The palace of the Popes can still be visited.
