St. Mary of Częstochowa Church, Zakopane

St. Mary of Częstochowa Church [Kościół Matki Boskiej Częstochowskiej]

Built between 1847 and 1851 at the behest of Zakopane’s first parish priest, Father Stolarczyk, the town’s oldest wooden church is a charming example of traditional rural architecture. Receiving extensive renovation work a century after its completion, the interior is rather plain, brightened up a little with some nice folk art painting and its main altar, a copy of the Black Madonna of Częstochowa (the original being in the Jasna Góra Monastery in Częstochowa). The tiny stone chapel of Saints Sverad and Benedict to the right of the church was built between 1806 and 1820. The oldest shrine in Zakopane, it was built by a clearly laid-back Paweł Gąsienica. Further to the right the church’s Na Pęksowym Brzyzku cemetery is full of ornate crosses and carvings marking the graves of many notable former Zakopane inhabitants.
