A w najbliższy czwartek, w Spycimierzu będę mówił o badaniach grodu. Miejscowe Centrum Spycimierskie Boże Ciało przygotowało stosowny plakat.

We found 11th-century rampart relics below the later #medieval motte castle mound.
And we have to wait for the analyses, especially the radiocarbon dating, to draw more conclusions. This will take until the beginning of next year.

The cathedral's most important medieval monument is the 12th-century Romanesque bronze doors. They are decorated with scenes from the life of St Adalbert.

Late Gothic portals were also made from artificial stone.

The cathedral was restored and regothicised after the Second World War.
The rich late Gothic sculpture decoration of the pillars' capitals and the vaults' ribs was made of artificial stone - was cast in a special mortar. This was a cheap and efficient solution in areas lacking proper stone.

This particular burial is quite typical of the period. It's a nice find, but probably not groundbreaking.
