Nowa Slupia

Nowa Słupia straddles the northern foothills of Łysa Góra in Poland’s Holy Cross Voivodeship, a position that has made it a traditional approach to the hilltop sanctuary of Święty Krzyż. The town lies beside Świętokrzyski National Park, where the slopes of Łysa Góra include gołoborza: broad fields of exposed quartzite boulders characteristic of these ancient mountains. Above it stands the former Benedictine monastery of Święty Krzyż, associated with relics of the Holy Cross that gave the region its name. Nowa Słupia also recalls early ironworking through Dymarki Świętokrzyskie, an event centred on historic smelting traditions.
