Kamień Pomorski — the co-cathedral and its organ

One of the most valuable places in West Pomerania: the medieval co-cathedral at Kamień Pomorski with its historic organ, on which the well-known Festival of Organ and Chamber Music is held in season.

The co-cathedral

The co-cathedral at Kamień Pomorski is one of the most important medieval churches in West Pomerania, with both Romanesque and Gothic elements. For centuries Kamień Pomorski was an important church centre for the region.

The organ music festival

In the summer season the co-cathedral hosts the Festival of Organ and Chamber Music — an event of long standing that draws listeners from all over the region. Concerts in the historic interior are among the best-known cultural attractions in the area.
