The bishopric in Plock was founded about 1075. The first definite reference to the cathedral is in 1102, when Wladyslaw I Herman was buried there. The present Romanesque cathedral was built after 1129, by Prince Boleslaw III and Bishop Aleksander of Malonne. This was a rebuilding following a fire and took from 1136 until 1144. It was consecrated in 1144, as the Church of the Blessed Virgin Mary. Following a major fire in 1530, the building was reconstructed as a new Renaissance style church (1531–1535). This was the first large Renaissance style cathedral in Poland, although it reused granite ashlar portions of the Romanesque basilica. The layout of the new cathedral was based on the Renaissance basilicas of Rome (Sant'Agostino, Santa Maria del Popolo). However the external architecture remains in the style of North Italian brick churches, more similar to local late Gothic ones in Masovia, and may be the result of rebuilding work about 1560, when the spacious choir and two western towers were added.
