Częstochowa Black Madonna Half-Day Trip

Embark on the pilgrimage route to Cz?stochowa, the religious center of Poland, home to the Black Madonna, the most cherished relic of the country.

Half-Day Trip Details

We'll meet at the designated time at Plaza de Matejko and head to Cz?stochowa, a city 140 km (87 miles) northwest in the Silesia Province.

Cz?stochowa is an industrial town in southern Poland known for the Jasna Góra Monastery, established by the Pauline monks in 1382. This site has become renowned for housing a prominent painting of the Virgin Mary and the Christ Child.

The monastery gained fame in the 17th century when three hundred men defended it against a siege of 12,000 Swedish armed forces, considered the first miracle of the Black Madonna.

Today, the relic of the Virgin Mary is the most revered relic in Poland and a national symbol.

After 6.5 hours, we'll conclude our day trip by returning to the meeting point in Kraków.

Day Trip Language

The journey to Cz?stochowa does not include a guide, but upon arrival, the guided tour is exclusively in English.
