Lomza Cathedral. St. Michael the Archangel once a parish church of St. Archangel Michael and Saint. John the Baptist. The building was built in the years 1504 - 1525.

In the main nave, the cathedral has star and network vaults, while in the aisles, crystal, rare in Mazovia. Inside there are many Gothic and late valuable works of art. On the outer wall of the temple tower of the cathedral a stone resembling a mask is embedded, perhaps it was once a subject of pagan worship. These types of masks are also found in the walls of the church in Pralnica in Masuria and the collegiate church in Pułtusk. The Łomża cathedral is a source of inspiration for many artists. This is demonstrated by the painting dedicated to the Łomża temple and numerous products of popular culture. It was, inter alia, placed on a postage stamp from the series of Marian Shrines.
