Absolutely stunning place! Kalwaria Zebrzydowska park is a Mannerist architectural and park landscape complex plus a pilgrimage park, built in the 17th century as the Counter Reformation in the late 16th century led to prosperity in the creation of calvaries in Catholic Europe. The park was added in 1999 to the UNESCO list of World Heritage Sites. The site is also one of Poland's official national Historic Monuments (Pomnik historii) and tracked by the National Heritage Board of Poland. This place is just mesmerising and you can fell something divine in the air, it’s truly a special place. They have also a some gastronomy there so you’ll never get hungry hah. P.S. Read about a history and fix your purpose before you go there!

Beautiful Church Complex

Wonderful.....one of Pope John Paul ll favourite places to pray also a World Heritage site.A must if you are in Poland.

Beautiful place with some fantastic views. 1. Try to visit when there is not a mass. 2. You can park along street all the way up to the top of Hill. 3. They have a main information window to the right of main entrance if you come up and enter from the bottom of the hill with statues above wall. 4. They also have tours at the information booth. 5. Remember to silence cell phone. 6. Bathroom is located directly behind (Rear entrance) in separate building in court yard. From rear entrance look to the right corner of courtyard you will see WC sign. Cost is 4 ZL cash and no credit card.

Definitely worth a visit! You can see there is much care put into the church and grounds. A lively parish, with a large group attending a weekday noon mass.

Love it, how that make use of public money

Amazing architecture surrounded by a so deep spiritual energy.

This chapel is an important stop for pilgrims to visit places important from the context of Pope John Paul II's life. On a hill, the view from the church lets you see miles into the beautiful landscape. The church built centuries ago is imposing and the frescos on the ceilings and walls are artistically done. There are showcases of the former Pope's visits and most of the content printed is in Polish. The confession boxes are wooden and interestingly crafted for privacy. The church premises are undergoing renovation and wheelchair and stroller accessibility can be better.

Very special and unique place in Poland when it comes to religious tourism and pilgrimage.

You just need to be there . And see the goodness of this place
