Jesuit College in Poznań

[1][2] According to historians Stanisław Załęski and Albert Pollard, the Order experienced notable early success in Poznań, and this was due in part to Bishop Konarski's ability to generate financial and social support from the local community.

[4][1] In its early years, the college also managed to attract lecturers from Scotland, including James Bosgrave and William Ogilvie.

[5] The founding of the college in Poznań caused controversy with the Kraków Academy, which considered itself to be dominant over other educational institutions.

[8] In 1655, during the Deluge, the Swedish army entered Poznań and confiscated the contents of the library at the college.

[10] In 1773, the National Education Commission shut down both the Jesuit college and the neighboring Lubrański Academy.
