The Pauline Monastery


General


It is worth to see the Pauline Monastery buildings as well as the Baroque Chapel of Our Lady of Leśna Podlaska.

The Pauline monastery buildings were built at the turn of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, and had been expanded later. Next to the Church there is the chapel of Our Lady of Leśna Podlaska, with a well on the site, where, according to a legend, in 1683 a miraculous image of Virgin Mary appeared for the first time on a pear tree. Inside the Chapel there are four pictures of L. Maciag presenting the most important events of the Sanctuary. Within a large park of the monastery and just next to the Church there are some “monuments of nature” – for instance a 350-year-old "Oak of Love" with a trunk circumference of about 6 m and 25 m in height. There is also an economic complex of the former Orthodox monastery preserved originating from the nineteenth / twentieth centuries for instance: the former stables, a warren, a chicken coops, a warehouse, a mill, the factory of the candles etc. In front of the Church 's walls there is a square - a park with a monument in honor of the Resistance fighters. Nearby there is a plaque commemorating the place of executions.
