Kalwaria Zebrzydowska is a town in southern Poland with 4,429 inhabitants (2007 estimate). As of 1999, it is situated in Lesser Poland or Małopolska. Previously, the town was administered within the Voivodeship of Bielsko-Biała (1975–1998).
With a vision while viewing the neighbouring hills and valleys from the Castle of Lanckorona, on 1 December 1602, Mikołaj Zebrzydowski, the Voivode of Kraków and Lanckorona commissioned the construction of the Kalwaria Zebrzydowska Roman Catholic monastery and the trails of the Passion of Christ modeled on the Calvary outside the city walls of Jerusalem.

After some initial photos of the church, the photos in this gallery are in the order of the Calvary, hence following the pass of Jesus Christ.
