Excursión de un día desde Cracovia al Castillo Pieskowa Skala y Czestochowa, incluida la "Virgen Negra"
El monasterio de Jasna Gora es el hogar de milagrosa "Virgen Negra". Se trata de una pintura gótica de la Virgen que, tras Roma, Lourdes y La Meca, hace de Czestochowa uno de los destinos de peregrinación más importantes del mundo actual. Su visita al monasterio incluye capilla de la imagen milagrosa y la basílica.
Además, si lo desea, podrá visitar el Museo del 600 aniversario, el arsenal y el tesoro por su cuenta mientras otros visitantes hacen una pausa para descansar o comprar souvenirs.
Su viaje de regreso a Cracovia le lleva a lo largo de la ruta de los Nidos de Águila, un sistema histórico estratégico de torres vigías y castillos. Hoy en día la mayoría de ellos están en ruinas. Sin embargo, no todos ellos están destruidos por completo y podrá ver algunos que perduran a lo largo del tiempo.
En el viaje de regreso desde Czestochowa parará en Pieskowa Skala para visitar un castillo del Renacimiento muy bien conservado a lo largo de la ruta de los Nidos de Águila. En lo alto de un acantilado del vallo del río Pradnik, esta fortificación del siglo XIV, que fue reconstruida en el siglo XVI y sirvió como una residencia del Renacimiento. Hoy en día alberga el Museo Nacional de Arte Wawel.

Pieskowa Skala castle was very picturesque through beautiful countryside. The guide was very good and gave time to visit the castle and a stop for refreshments. The Black Madonna at Czestochowa was a very uplifting experience with time to pray at the church and to view the Black Madonna close up. The food at the polish restaurant was delicious a very enjoyable trip.
My wife grew up in a community of Polish Americans and the Black Madonna was an icon not only of the Catholic Church in Poland but of the church in her community as well. Many families had a picture of her in their homes. She wanted to see it in person. The tour was a day long drive and when we arrived a Mass was being conducted in the chapel where the picture was displayed. We had a small glimpse of the picture over several hundred people and through a metal grate. We waited to the end of the mass in the hopes that some of the people would leave but as the mass ended a cover was lowered over the painting. We understood that it would be open for viewing again at 2:00 in the afternoon but our tour could not wait for that. The only saving grace was that we were the only two people on the tour and our tour guide Bruno was delightful and we enjoyed talking with him on the trip up and back. If you are going to offer this tour you should understand when the painting will be visible.
Could have spent less time @ Pieskowa Castle and more time @ Czestochowa/Black Madonna Guide was professional, knowledgeable, and helpful Enjoyable day
While both tour destinations were outstanding and well worth a visit if a castle visit and religious shrine are your interests, we could have done without the snarky, anti-religion attitude of Andrew the tour guide. Fortunately, most of the visit to the shrine was self-guided after a brief introduction by Andrew. He should present a neutral opinion since most people taking this tour are almost certainly going for a spiritual experience. There were several museums at the site he just pointed out the entrance to. Other guides were together with other groups in the museums, offering commentary, etc. Why not with this pricey tour?
My experience was really very good and I recommend this tour to everyone who visit Poland! Jasna Gora monastery in Czestochowa is very special place and Black Madonna extraordinary! Our guide Andrew Andrej? was really nice and friendly person, his information about history of Poland was really useful! Pieskowa Skala Castle was also nice with its long history and beautiful nature. This tour was the highlight of my trip. Thank you!
Czestochowas was very crowded which cant be helped but very interesting. The Castle was nice. The tour guide was very informative and helpful.
