context_page_description: The Gniezno Doors are a pair of bronze doors at the entrance to Gniezno Cathedral in Gniezno, Poland, a Gothic building which the doors predate, having been carried over from an earlier building. They are decorated with eighteen bas-relief scenes from the life of St. Adalbert, whose remains had been purchased for their weight in gold and brought back to, and enshrined in, the cathedral. The doors were made about 1175, in the reign of Mieszko III the Old, and are one of the most important works of Romanesque art in Poland.
