Stop At: Ostrow Tumski – (Cathedral Island), Ostrow Tumski, Wroclaw Poland
Archaeological excavations have shown that the western part of Ostrów Tumski, between the Church of St. Martin and the Holy Cross, was the first area to be inhabited. The first, wooden church (St. Martin), dating from the 10th century, was surrounded by defensive walls built on the banks of the river. The island had approximately 1,500 inhabitants at that time.
The first constructions on Ostrów Tumski were built in the 10th century by the Piast dynasty and were made from wood. The first building from solid material was St. Martin’s chapel, built probably at the beginning of the eleventh century by Benedictine monks. Not long after the first cathedral was raised, in place of the small church. Religious buildings appeared in Ostrów Tumski because, during the Congress of Gniezno in AD 1000, it was decided to create a bishopric in Wrocław.
