Worshippers kneel on the cobblestones before the Gate of Dawn in Wilno — today's Vilnius, Lithuania — beneath a Baroque chapel housing one of Catholic Europe's most venerated Marian icons, in this interwar postcard from the two decades the city belonged to Poland. Built in the early 1500s as one of nine original city gates, the shrine remains a major pilgrimage site.
