Devine Mercy Sanctuary in Kraków
Today is the day of visiting churches. First thing this morning after breakfast, we went to the The Divine Mercy Sanctuary inKraków where there is a shrine designated by Cardinal Karol Wojtyła (Pope John Paul II) to Saint Faustina Kowalska who is buried there.
The area had been a Monastary for the Sisters of Our Lady of Mercy, where they eventually were in the church. There is a cemetery where the nuns from the Sisters of Our Lady of Mercy are buried.
The structure has very modern architecture & is an amazing sight! It has a tower that you can go up either by stairs or by elevator to get a wonderful view overlooking Kraków, which of course I took the opportunity to do. The clear skies gave us a view that extends for miles.
If you are in Kraków, you should take the opportunity to see this beautiful church.
