The Sacred Sanctuary of Jasna Góra

Getting There

• Car

  If you are driving, head towards Częstochowa. From the city center, follow Klasztorna Street, which leads directly to the Kaplica Cudownego Obrazu Czarnej Madonny Matki Bożej Częstochowskiej at Klasztorna 1. There is parking available nearby, but be prepared for potential fees, which can range from 5 to 10 PLN per hour.

• Train

  To reach Częstochowa by train, take a train from any major Silesian city (such as Katowice or Gliwice) to Częstochowa Główna station. Upon arrival at the station, you can either walk (approximately 20-25 minutes) or take a local bus (lines 12, 22, or 23) towards the city center. Get off at the 'Klasztorna' stop, which is a short walk from the chapel.

• Bus

  If you prefer to travel by bus, various regional bus services connect Silesian towns to Częstochowa. Upon arriving at the Częstochowa bus station, you can take local bus lines (12, 22, or 23) to the 'Klasztorna' stop, which is very close to the chapel. Bus tickets typically cost around 3-4 PLN.

• Taxi/Ride-Sharing

  For a more convenient option, consider using a taxi or a ride-sharing service like Uber. This can be particularly useful if you are traveling from a distant location in Silesia. The cost will vary based on your starting point but expect to pay around 40-100 PLN depending on distance.
