Corpus Christi in Poland
Corpus Christi, known as “Boże Ciało” in Polish, is a significant Catholic feast celebrated on the Thursday after Trinity Sunday. It commemorates the belief in the Real Presence of the Body and Blood of Jesus Christ in the Eucharist. In Poland, it is marked by elaborate processions through the streets, where the consecrated host is carried in a monstrance under a canopy. The faithful follow, singing hymns and praying, and altars are set up along the route, decorated with flowers and religious symbols. This public demonstration of faith is one of the most visually striking and spiritually significant events in the Polish Catholic calendar.
