The Cathedral, raised to the status of Minor Basilica in 1972, is the most impressive of all monuments in Tarnów. The original 14th century Gothic building was presumably made of brick and stone, with one nave and a rectangular apse. It was quite a large structure even though had no tower.
First written information on the church are dated back to 1346. In 1400 the church became a collegiate. Consequently, between the end of the 14th century and the 19th century the original building of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary parish church was supplemented with chapels. Tower was adjusted to the nave at the end of the 15th century, after the fire of 1494.
Nowadays the tower reaches 72 meters into the sky, but its original size remains unknown. In 1810 part of the tower was pulled down to the roof level for the reconstruction works that lasted until 1891.
