Czestochowa the religious capital of Poland Czestochowa is primarily known for housing the icon named "the black madonna". This icon is located in the Jasna Góra monastry which is located on a hilltop overlooking the fairly large city (round 260.000 inhabitants).
From the monastery a large pedestrian road (Al. NMP) cuts nicely through the city down to the Daszynski square.
The city is located in a landscape of hills to the east and south and more flat plains with occasional rolling hills to the north. |
