Jesuit College in Kalisz

The Jesuit College in Kalisz (Polish: Kolegium jezuitów w Kaliszu) was a college founded by the Jesuit Order in Kalisz, Poland.

The college was founded in 1584 by the Primate of Poland, Stanisław Karnkowski, and it became a popular destination for the nobility.

[1][2] According to historian Albert Pollard, the college managed to reach a size of 500 students.

[1] Pupils performed for King Sigismund Vasa on one occasion,[4] and the college also eventually attracted playwright Andrzej Temberski [ru] as a lecturer.

[6] Important collections of maps, books, and drama from the college still exist in the modern period, with some pieces residing at the University of Warsaw Library.
