Eastern Europe is a land of faith, where ancient cities and cathedrals bear witness to God’s enduring presence. Saints and faithful believers have left paths of devotion that still inspire pilgrims today. Every basilica and monastery tells a story of prayer, hope, and God’s constant grace.

Medjugorje is a humble village that has become a refuge for those seeking God’s peace. Here, pilgrims speak of healing, reconciliation, and renewed faith. Whether on Apparition Hill or in quiet prayer before the Blessed Sacrament, Medjugorje offers one simple call: return to God and let Our Lady lead you closer to her Son.

Experience the beauty and sacredness of Eastern Europe, along with Dubrovnik and Medjugorje in Croatia, on a journey filled with prayer, grace, and faith. Join a 15-day Marian Pilgrimage to Eastern Europe (Poland, the Czech Republic, and Austria) with Our Lady of Medjugorje led by Fr. Allan Abuan on April 16–30, 2026.

Begin your pilgrimage in Niepokalanów, Poland, home to the “City of the Immaculate Mother of God.” This Marian sanctuary was founded by Saint-Martyr Maximilian Kolbe, and at its heart stands the majestic Niepokalanów Basilica, dedicated to Mary, Mediatrix of All Graces. From there, journey to Czestochowa to see the miraculous icon of Our Lady of Czestochowa at the Jasna Góra Monastery. Renowned for countless miracles and answered prayers, this sacred site draws pilgrims from around the world, inspiring faith, hope, and devotion.

Continue your journey to Wadowice, the hometown of St. John Paul II. Take a guided tour of the Pope’s Family Home, now a museum, and visit the Basilica of the Presentation of the Blessed Virgin Mary, where Karol Wojtyła was baptized and served as an altar boy in his youth. Then head to Łagiewniki to visit the Shrine of Divine Mercy. At the heart of the shrine stands the chapel, home to the miraculous image of the Merciful Jesus and the tomb of St. Faustina. Next, make your way to Krakow to discover the landmarks connected to St. John Paul II and the charm of its postcard-perfect Old Town.

Leave Poland for the Czech Republic and spend two nights in Prague, one of the most beautiful cities in the world. Celebrate Mass at the Church of Our Lady Victorious, home of the original image of the Sto. Niño de Praga. Enjoy a leisurely walk across the iconic Charles Bridge and into the Old Town, where the famous astronomical clock adorns the historic Town Hall.

Austria‘s capital, Vienna, offers a unique blend of imperial tradition, music, and timeless charm. This fascinating city is a tapestry of green, rolling vineyards and magnificent imperial architecture. Not to be missed is a delightful boat ride along the Danube River. Celebrate Mass at the breathtaking Church of St. Peter, adorned with stunning Baroque artistry.

From Vienna, head for the picturesque town of Dubrovnik—Croatia‘s pearl of the Adriatic and a city proudly listed as a UNESCO World Cultural Heritage site.

Wind down your pilgrimage in Medjugorje—a place set apart by God, where the Blessed Virgin Mary has been appearing since 1981. During your four-night stay, take time for deep prayer and reflection. Join the evening rosary at the Church of St. James, and climb Apparition Hill, the site of the first apparitions. Along the path, you will find the Wooden Cross marking the spot where Our Lady first called for peace.
