Kalwaria Pacławska
Kalwaria Pacławska 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 km south-west of Fredropol, 18 km south of Przemyśl, and 68 km south-east of the regional capital Rzeszów. The village took its name from the big calvary that arose in the XIVth century around the Orthodox Church of Simeon Stylites. 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. It has also a miraculous image of Our Lady.
