The crypts of the parish church in Łańcut - Secrets of the Potocki family
The crypts in the parish church in Łańcut are a mysterious place where history is intertwined with the dark atmosphere of the past. In the vaults of this historic church, which rises against the backdrop of the picturesque market square, rest the members of the Potocki family, one of the most magnate families in Poland. It is here, in the privacy of the cool crypts, that the graves of, amongst others, Aleksander Potocki and other representatives of the family, who for centuries influenced the history of Łańcut and the entire region, were located.
Although the crypt is a resting place for many, the very atmosphere of this place brings reflection and mysticism. Some say you can even feel the presence of the past in these underground corridors, and the dead silence around you is overwhelmingly vivid, like the past has taken you over. Here, you can remember how history and tradition intertwine with the everyday life of Łańcut.
