If you come to Gdansk in winter and would like to see the coty from above you need to go to this church as there is a viewing platform on top of the bell tower. It costs 16 PLN per person, which is about 4 EUR. Anyway, keep in mind you need to climb 400 steps. But it is worth it. The views are lovely. Unfortunately the platform is quite small. So more than 10 people and dang, it is already crowded. Why have I mentioned the winter season? Well, during summer you can also climb the platform of the old townhall. It is closed in winter.

A very fascinating Gothic church landmark in Gdansk's Old Town. Unfortunately, photos are not allowed inside the church, and I do respect that. Inside, you'll find good paintings and sculptures. Some floors of the church contain gravestone slabs. I recommend seeing this church when you are in Gdansk.

It looks large from outside but when you step inside it is vast, in fact I learned that it is one of the largest brick built churches in the world. It is free entry and you can stroll around or sit for a while, you can walk up the tower for a charge but I was informed that there was 400 steps and as I had walked a fair bit already that day I declined. Definitely worth a visit as you explore the old town.

St. Mary's Church can be found in the center of Gdansk Old Town which is the largest gothic brick churches in the world. Which holds a rich history which dates back years. Was taken back by the interior of the church from its high ceiling vaults and pillars in white which were damage during WWII and the original frescoes have been whitewashed but all still do make a statement. architectural features, beautiful stained glass windows, scattered around the stone floor are about 300 tombstones, chapels, artwork. The astronomical clock dating from 1464 is stunning to see. You do have option of to climb up to the top of the tower. Did visit early in morning which gave me a great opportunity to take many photos of this beautiful church.

We visited St. Mary’s on 2 occasions. Once to just view all of the history as well as to watch the astronomical clock at noon. Such an amazing experience! It can be quite busy but no issues with viewing. We returned a couple of days later and climbed to the top of the bell tower. It was 18 zlotys each and worth every penny! 406 steps from bottom to top! The views of the city were just spectacular!!! Be prepared to be in a small and twisting staircase to begin with but it widens closer to the top. Heights aren’t my favourite but I had no issues or worries!! Highly recommend!

This is the big church in town and is worth visiting because it is highly decorated in a distinctly Easter European style. The Catholic Church is very important in this country, so this church is well-loved and maintained. There was a mass going on so we could see only a little of the inside.

Very nice church. The church itself is free but you can pay a small fee to go up the church tower. After climbing the 409 steps the views at the top are pretty good. The viewing platform is quite small and got quite crowded when we were up there
