Roman Catholic Diocese of Zielona Góra-Gorzów, Catholic diocese in Western Poland
The Diocese of Zielona Góra-Gorzów is a Catholic church organization in western Poland that serves roughly one million people across a wide territory. Its leadership operates from Zielona Góra and coordinates hundreds of parish communities throughout the region.
The diocese was created in 1972 from an earlier church administration structure and took its current name in 1992 when the church reorganized its regional boundaries. These two moments shaped it as an independent diocese in western Poland.
The two main churches shape how local Catholics gather and pray: the Cathedral of the Assumption in Gorzów Wielkopolski and the Co-Cathedral of Saint Hedwig in Zielona Góra. These buildings stand at the heart of the community's religious life.
The administrative office is located in Zielona Góra, where you can find information and learn about activities in the diocese. Both main churches hold regular services that are open to visitors.
The Basilica of Rokitno within this diocese draws pilgrims who come to see medieval religious artwork housed there. The site attracts visitors interested in both art history and spiritual journeys.
