    Yeah, I can confirm it is in the UK. I actually knew it was tricky to get the country, could have been the Netherlands as well. But that mirror should have been a dead giveaway, to be honest^^

    Now, a city that has a club of people which is famous within the whole UK, has more than 250,000 inhabitants (only about 20 cities in the UK are larger than that), and one building took 761 years to finish...

    Both wrong.

    This city is well known because of one particular person, which was a very talented sciencist, who completely changed mankind's perception of the world. His theory was completely different from the ones previously provided only by various religions. It was confirmed and changed in details few times afterwords and partially proven within last 50 years. He is one of the most famous Polish people of all times.
