Kalwaria Zebrzydowska - захватывающий дух культурный ландшафт большого духовного значения. Его естественная установка - в который ряд символических храмов, касающихся Страсти Иисуса Христос и жизнь Девственницы, Мэри была размещена в начале 17-ого столетия - осталась фактически неизменяемой. Это - все еще сегодня место паломничества.
