Czestochowa plays a crucial role for the Roman Catholic Poles, being a kind of spiritual capital to them. For several centuries the name of this town has always been associated with its largest and most important historic monument – the monastery and stronghold of Jasna Gora, which with the magnificent painting of Our Lady called Black Madonna is one of the most important places of religious worship in the Christian world. The Czestochowa sanctuary is also an outstanding monument of 15th century architecture, with later Renaissance and Baroque alternations.
