Sanctuary of Our Lady of Klenica in Otyń

A sanctuary and parish church of the Exaltation of the Holy Cross, with a former castle converted into a Jesuit monastery. The castle was built in the 15th century, and between 1652 and 1681 the Jesuits transformed it into a monastery, which became a Marian sanctuary.

The figure of Our Lady of Klenica

In 1655, during the Swedish Deluge, the figure of Our Lady of Klenica was moved from Klenica to Otyń (first to the Jesuits' castle chapel, then to the church). The order was dissolved in 1776.
