Cathedral Hill (Wzgórze Katedralne) is the collective name for Frombork’s famed complex and consists of a medieval cathedral, bishopric palaces, diocesan chanceries, defensive walls, towers and keeps. Dating from at least the 14th century, this was where Copernicus was believed to have worked, and is therefore something of a shrine for Copernicus fans the world over. Remarkably, Cathedral Hill was practically the only part of Frombork left standing at the end of the Second World War.
