Lonely Planet review

The Church of St Mary Magdalene is a mighty Gothic brick building constructed during the city's heyday in the 14th century. Its showpiece is a copy of a Romanesque portal from around 1280 on the south wall, which originally adorned the Benedictine Abbey in Ołbin, but was moved here in 1546 after the abbey was demolished. The original tympanum is on display in Wrocław's National Museum. You can climb the 72m-high tower and cross the so-called Penance Footbridge (Mostek Pokutnik).
