| Summary: | The Order of Camaldolese Fathers became a permanent part of the history of Catholic Church in Poland as well as the history of the Polish nation. Prayers, fasting and the vow of silence of St Romuald's disciples for four centuries have been an exceptionally compelling example of serving God, which is confirmed by the presence of the Camaldolese in Krakow's Bielany. The history of an over 400-year-old monastery in Bielany is full of beautiful, horrific and tragic events alike; this article recounts them. |
