This study presents a universal method for the reconstruction of medieval vaults, which has been developed by the authors. With the use of computer technology a new interpretation of archive sources (mainly the works of B. Ranisch) has been achieved. The study concerns the construction of virtual models of several two- and three-dimensional types of vaults such as triple, stellar and stellar-network. For the purpose of this study, patterns with a clear, exquisite and relatively simple spatial structure arrangement were selected, that are characteristic and popular in Poland as well as in Central Europe. These can be admired in Gdansk in St. Mary's, St. Cathrine's and St. John's churches where severy bays go alongside with parts reconstructed in the 20th century according to the guidelines of B. Ranisch. Direct observations of building structures, comparing historical documentation with that of the reconstruction period as well as the records of a modern photogrammetric inventory constituted a base for developing virtual vaults.
