A Pilgrimage of Mercy and Marian Devotion in Central Europe

Date: 1st Oct 2026 - 13th Oct 2026

Walk through the spiritual heart of Central Europe on a pilgrimage shaped by Marian devotion, heroic witness, and Divine Mercy. This sacred journey begins in Hungary, exploring Budapest’s historic churches and the great cathedral of Esztergom, the mother church of the nation. Crossing into the Czech Republic, pilgrims venerate the Infant Jesus of Prague and trace centuries of Catholic tradition through Prague’s old town and cathedral precincts.  

In Poland, the pilgrimage reaches its deepest spiritual intensity. Pray at the Divine Mercy Shrine in Krakow, stand in solemn remembrance at Auschwitz, and venerate the Black Madonna at Jasna Góra in Czestochowa. Visits to Kalwaria Zebrzydowska, Wadowice, and Niepokalanów immerse pilgrims in the spiritual legacy of St. John Paul II and St. Maximilian Kolbe. With daily Mass, guided reflection, and time for silent prayer, this journey offers profound renewal through mercy, sacrifice, and Marian love.
