Frombork, Information and images

  • Frombork <9> <9> From the bell tower, which is diagonally across from the Gothic cathedral in Frauenburg (Frombork), the view extends far beyond the Frische Haff and - in good weather - into the Russian exclave Kaliningrad (Königsberg).. In addition to the magnificent view, the bell tower still has to offer its guests a planetarium with a Foucault pendulum.. The fact that a planetarium invites visitors to visit in a small, dreamy city in northeastern Poland is due to Nicolas Copernicus from Frauenburg.. The astronomer lived here from 1517 until his death on May 24, 1543. <9> <9> Sightseeing <9> <9> Cathedral <9> <9> Bishop Eberhard von Neisse awarded Frauenburg 1310 the town right to Lübisch law.. Like the other three dioceses, the diocese of Warmia also received a cathedral, which was built in 1329 on a hill above the city, today the cathedral complex.. The construction work was completed in 1388.. However, the final end of construction does not mark this year.. In the centuries to come, the cathedral was constantly expanded and rebuilt.. The cathedral was built by the church for fear of raiding the Prussians in Frauenburg.. The cathedral has - surprisingly - no west tower, but an eight-bay nave.. The cathedral´s showpieces are the organ built by GdaÅ„sk´s Daniel Nitrowski in 1683 and 1684, and the high altar.. The middle panel of the altar, made by Franciszek Placidi between 1742 and 1752, represents Mary. In the northern part, visitors will find a late Gothic polytych, which was the main altar until the mid-18th century.. It had been donated by 1504 Watzenrode.. Also worth seeing is the St. Anne´s Altar, which is also on the north side of the cathedral.. The painting in the middle was painted by the Danzig artisan Bartholomew Strobel in 1639. The cathedral is surrounded by a defensive wall with a belfry in the northwest corner.. He was, according to tradition, between 1504 and 1543 in the possession of Copernicus.. Here the astronomer is said to have set up a study and an observatory.. But this assumption can not be proved.. It is more likely that Copernicus worked in his house near the cathedral.. <9> <9> Copernicus Library <9> <9> The Episcopal Palace next to the Duomo now houses the Copernicus Museum, which houses various items reminiscent of Copernicus.. Among them are an early edition of his work ´De Revolutionibus Orbium Coelestium´ and other books by Copernicus on astronomy, medicine, politics and economics.. In addition to the already mentioned exhibits, visitors to the museum can admire portraits of the Renaissance scholar.. The library of Copernicus can no longer be visited today.. The Swedes plundered them during the ´Sinflut´ in 1626.. <9> <9> Holy Spirit Hospital <9> <9> is part of the Nicolaus Copernicus Museum.. Housed here is the medical-historical department of the museum.. Exhibits include 18th-century medical reference books and a drug list of the Royal Pharmacy in Warsaw.. Behind the hospital, the museum has created a garden with a variety of flowers and herbs.. Strollers can enjoy the tranquility and beauty of the garden on benches.. <9> <9>
