Zdzislaw Beksiński is one of the most renowned Polish
artists of the second half of the twentieth century. His art
works can be found in numerous galleries and museums
around the world. One of the few places in Poland where
you can see dozens of the artist's works is Częstochowa,
namely the Museum of Zdzislaw Beksiński in the City Art
Gallery. The works presented here come from the
collection of the artist’s friends - Anna and Piotr
Dmochowski.
"The Museum of Ore Mining in Częstochowa is one of the places in Poland where you can learn about traditional methods of mining iron ore in natural conditions. It is housed in the underground corridors hollowed out beneath the Częstochowa Stanisław Staszic Park. Besides the old
corridors, we can see specialized machinery and equipment. The opening of the exhibition took place in 2008. The museum is a branch of the Częstochowa Museum."
The Stanisław Staszic Park in Częstochowa is one of the two
parks at the foot of Jasna Góra which are located towards
the east of the monastery. Their boundaries were drawn in
the first half of the nineteenth century. Currently, the
Staszic Park has over 5 hectares, and there are
monumental trees, here. The pride of the park is numerous
monuments and buildings erected on the occasion of the
Industry and Agriculture Exhibition in Częstochowa in 1909.
In 1909, the Exhibition of Industry and Agriculture was held in Częstochowa. It was the largest event of its kind in the Polish lands before the the First World War. Within a few months, 660 exhibitors presented their products to about half a million visitors. A reminder of that exhibition is a few halls which can be seen in the Staszica Park at Jasna Góra.
In the Jasna Góra Treasury in Częstochowa, there are
begging and thanksgiving offerings which were made to
Our Lady by pilgrims who have been visiting the shrine
from the late Middle Ages to modern times. Among the
votive offerings, we can see both masterpieces of art -
royal or papal gifts - and modest items bearing the
emotional value. The oldest ones are from the
fourteenth century.
