Krasnobród Marian Sanctuary
Sanktuarium Maryjne w Krasnobrodzie
The Baroque Marian church in Krasnobród, a spa town in Roztocze, with a 'water chapel' built over a spring nearby.
Krasnobród is a spa town in Roztocze, famous for a 1640s legend of a Marian apparition, and it is an important Marian pilgrimage site in southeastern Poland. The Church of the Visitation of Mary, formerly a Dominican monastery and completed at the end of the 17th century, houses an image of the Virgin Mary. In the nearby woods stands the Water Chapel (Kaplica na Wodzie), built over a sacred spring whose water is believed to have healing powers. The town has a lakeside bathing area and cycling paths. It is about 25 km from Zamość and works well as a same-day trip with the national park.
