Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: Portrait of Władysław III Wareńczyka (1424 – 10 November 1444) who was King of Poland from 1434, and King of Hungary from 1440, until his death at age 20 at the Battle of Varna. The portrait hangs in the Vestry of the Church at the site of the Parish of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary in Gdów - shrine of our Lady of Gdów. Two annotated paintings of the young King also hang in the church and outline why this church had special significance for him. The Church ("Kościół") of Gdów is located close to where the historic Battle of Gdów took place in 1846 and in which Polish 'insurgents', under the command of the absent Colonel Suchorzewski, fought for independence from Austria in the only battle of the Kraków Uprising. Ludwik Kusionowicz, the parish priest in Gdów from 1842 to 1888 and who later became Dean of Wieliczka, chronicled the Battle of Gdów and also provided refuge in the Church for supporters of the Polish nationalists who were fleeing the Austrian military and their peasant militia.
