Czestochowa is a City of over 760 years of history, located in the heart of southern Poland, on the borderland of two geographical regions: Silesian Upland and Krakowsko – Czestochowska Upland. The city of Czestochowa is an important religious sanctuary connected with the cult of icon of Our Lady of Czestochowa, better known as the Black Madonna. There have been reports for centuries of miraculous events occurring to those who made a pilgrimage to the unique portrait. While the portrait is what the pilgrims mostly focus on, also the votive offerings collected in the monastery given to the Black Madonna over the centuries are worth seeing.

It was great. We were the only ones; another company would have cancelled the trip, but Viator didn't. Our guide was great, allowed us enough time for everything and even gave us lunch. I have taken previous trips with Viator and wouldn't consider any other company
