Is there any Polish who has never been to Czestochowa to see the Image of Black Madonna? Probably just a few :) This Icon is with us for last 600 years and history of Poland is there. During this tour you will feel like visiting one of the main symbols of Poland, Polish history, faith and values. I am professional guide but in a friendly way we will be able to talk about all aspects of this place and its significance. Bright Mount Monastery where the famous Icon of Mary with Jesus is kept is the capital of Polish Catholicism visited by over 3 million people each year, one of the most famous pilgrimage site in the world, and the center of Polish identity. The Black Madonna is named Queen of Poland because in 1655 Swedish conquered big cities of the country but couldn't conquer Shrine. It was a turning point of the war. Apart of Icon itself in this fortified monastery situated on the Bright Mount you will see the beauty of its gothic Chapel, baroque Basilica and Treasury with st. Therese's veil or JFK ring.
