As a result of archeological and architectonic studies carried out under the auspices of the author in the cathedral underground, relicts of the foundation walls and architectonic detail of four sacral buildings preceding the presently existing Gothic cathedral were discovered. The oldest two of these buildings, i.e. the first brick church of which, up to the present, there were no historical references, and the first cathedral bound with a historical mention related to the Gniezno convention of the year 1000, are the subject of this paper. The stratigraphic arrangement of these relicts, the stylistic analysis of the architectonic detail nad historical references allowed us to identify these buildings and to reconstruct their plan outlines, as well as fragments of architecture. Despite some doubts, resulting from the diffuclties of exavation explorations, the obtained picture is unmistakable. The first church from the eighties of the 10th century was a building on the plan of a cross, most probably Latin (?), of the outer dimensions of 18,5 x 24,0 m. The church in Libice from the second quater of the 10th century, by the residence of prince Savnik, may be recognized as an architectonic model of this building. The construction of the Wrocaw church may be attributed to the tribal prince of the lŠžanie, who was subordinated to the Czech sovereignty. The Polish prince Mieszko I who in the middle of the eighties incorporated the strong-hold to his state supported and prepared that church to the new dignity.The first cathedral, founded by Bolesaw Chrobry on the authority of the Gniezno convention's decision of the year 1000 was a pre-Romanesque building of the outer dimensions of 18,5 x 33,5 m and of an arrangement similar to the earlier cathedral in Poznaä. This was a stone fillared basilica with no trasept with a four-column crypt under the gallery, two south towers and an east massive form according to the Carolingian tradition of the Ottomian architecture.
