Kalwaria Pacławska

Kalwaria Pacławska (Polish: [kalˈvarja paˈt͡swafska]) is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Fredropol, within Przemyśl County, Subcarpathian Voivodeship, in south-eastern Poland, close to the border with Ukraine.

It lies approximately 9 kilometres (6 mi) south-west of Fredropol, 18 km (11 mi) south of Przemyśl, and 68 km (42 mi) south-east of the regional capital Rzeszów.

[1] The village took its name from the big calvary that arose in the XIVth century around the Orthodox Church of Simeon Stylites.

[2][3] After the region fell into the control of Poland, it was transformed and developed as a Catholic religious center by Andrzej Maksymilian Fredro and became a popular pilgrimage site.
