Chapel at Polana Chochołowska - a wooden chapel located near the forest, on the upper edge of the Chochołowska Glade in the Chochołowska Valley in the Western Tatras. It is built in highland style with unpainted planks, covered with black, wooden shingles. Its dome is topped with a cross made of raw, rough wood. The chapel was built in 1958 for highlanders who at that time grazed sheep on the Chochołowska Glade. A scene of Janosik's shot was shot at the chapel. The chapel was given the name of Saint. John the Baptist. There is a cross next to the chapel. It was erected in 2003, in memory of the stay of John Paul II at Polana Chochołowska in 1983. Karol Wojtyła has been here many times before. There were benches next to the chapel. In the tourist season, from June to October, there are holy masses held at 13 o'clock. Next to the chapel, there is a small roofed shed and a wooden cross. In 1996, the road leading to the chapel was paved.
