General


Saint Stanislas Bishop and Martyr for Peace - patron saint of Poland whose birthplace was Szczepanów where sanctuary of his name was established.

His relics are enshrined in the parish church. St. Stanislas’ picture, which is believed to distribute graces, is located in the main altar. The trunk of the oak next to which St. Slanislas was to be born is stored in the Nativity Chapel. Nearby, there is a spring where Stanislas’ mother washed the new-born baby. Sanctuary in Szczepanów is the first in diocese to have been visited by two later Popes: Karol Wojtyła and Joseph Ratzinger.
