Świnice Warckie, Rural village in Łęczyca County, Poland.
Świnice Warckie is a village in central Poland and the administrative seat of its municipality in Łęczyca County. It sits in an open farming landscape and consists of a parish church, residential buildings, and basic local services.
The parish church dedicated to Saint Casimir was built in 1859 and became the religious heart of the village. It has remained the most recognizable structure in the settlement ever since.
Świnice Warckie has a strong connection to Saint Faustina Kowalska, who was baptized here and received her first communion at the parish church. Visitors today can see references to her life throughout the church interior.
The village is a small settlement with limited services, so it is best visited as part of a broader trip through the region. Those wishing to enter the parish church should check local opening times before arriving.
Faustina Kowalska, who died in 1938 and was canonized in 2000, was baptized in this very church, making the village a destination for pilgrims. The church was granted sanctuary status in 2002, setting it apart from other rural churches in the area.
