Lonely Planet review for Cathedral of Ss Peter and Paul

At the southern end of the Rynek, the Cathedral of SS Peter and Paul retains two original Gothic doorways. The one on the northern side (facing the Rynek) has a splendid (though recut) tympanum depicting the Adoration of the Magi, while that on the west depicts Mary with the infant Jesus. The interior has the usual hotchpotch of furnishings, of which the oldest piece, the bronze baptismal font with bas-reliefs in the chapel off the left aisle, dates from the late 13th century and is reputedly the oldest metal font in Poland.
