Saint Charles Borromeo chapel in Nałęczów

Saint Charles Borromeo chapel in Nałęczów, Catholic chapel in Nałęczów, Poland.

Saint Charles Borromeo Chapel is a wooden chapel in Nałęczów, built in the Zakopane style after a design by Stanisław Witkiewicz between February 1917 and June 1919. It was funded by Ludwika Benni in memory of her husband Karol. The altar holds a copy of the image of Saint Charles Borromeo from the church of the same name in Warsaw's Powązki.

Ludwika Benni funded the chapel in memory of her husband Karol. Built in the Zakopane style after a design by Stanisław Witkiewicz, it was erected between February 1917 and June 1919. On 22 June 1919 Bishop Marian Leon Fulman authorised its consecration by Father Łuczycki. In 1997 Archbishop Józef Życiński elevated it to a rectoral church.

The chapel is dedicated to Charles Borromeo, Archbishop of Milan and patron of the sick; the altarpiece is a copy of the painting in the Warsaw church of the same name at Powązki. Ludwika Benni founded it in memory of her husband Karol. Care of the chapel was long entrusted to Elżbieta Czyżewska and the Grochowicz family, who bought the villa "Podgórze" from Benni.

The chapel is situated within the village of Nałęczów and is accessible on foot as part of a walk through the local area. Since this is an active place of worship, visitors should maintain respectful behavior and wear appropriate clothing.
