St. Mary's Basilica, a Brick Gothic church, was initially constructed in the early thirteenth century. Reconstructed in the fourteen century, the church is located nearby the main Market Square in Krakow. Predominantly famed for its altarpiece made with wood and designed by Veit Stoss, the church is one of the most popular sites of the city. A trumpet signal called the Hejnal mariacki is played every hour from the peak of the taller of the church’s two towers.
