    Tips

    To fully understand the meaning of Zakopane for Poland in the second half of the 19th century: Polish lands had been occupied by Russia, Austria and Prussia since 1795. The recent (1848) Spring of Nations event grew hope amongst the Poles. The Austrian occupation was the lightest, the use of Polish was allowed. Podhale region culture became a symbol of the Polish freedom and Zakopane a meeting place for all the Polish intelligence of that time.

    This the reason why it was designed by a top Polish architect Stanisław Witkiewicz, built in 1904-1907. There are beautiful stained glass windows with the “Polish” Lady of Częstochowa and the “Lithuanian” Lady of Ostra Brama with their respective emblemas, very meaningful at that time.
    Nowadays the chapel is extremely popular as a marriage place, because of its exceptional charm.
