Day tour to Black Madonna in Częstochowa from Cracow

Take a full-day tour from Kraków to Czestochowa, home of the famous Black Madonna painting. Discover one of the most popular monasteries in Poland and an example of Gothic architecture. The monastery was a place of miracle, so it takes place in the history. It was built in the 17th century, and during your trip you will see an exhibition devoted to the Monastery’s history. But the tour highlight is a visit to the icon of Our Lady of Częstochowa in the Chapel of the Black Madonna. Learn the incredible history of the painting, from its mysterious and ambiguous origins, to the many miracles it has been tied to over the centuries, continuing to captivate Catholics to this day. See why this monastery was so close to the heart of Pope John Paul II, and why it was chosen as the place to permanently display his bullet–torn sash after his 1981 assassination attempt.
This private tour ensures a personalised experience, so you can spend as long as you like visiting the sacred Jasna Gora monastery and marveling at the Black Madonna. Come back after the tour to the Cracow city center.
