Summary/Abstract: The Provincial Archive of Bernardine Fathers in Cracow and the Archive of Bernardine Monastery in Kalwaria Zebrzydowska have the largest collection of photographs which document the history of passion-marian sanctuary of Kalwaria Zebrzydowska. In 1999 the complex was added to the UNESCO list of World Heritage Sites and since 2000 it has been recognized as a Polish historic monument. Hence, it is appropriate to depict the photographic legacy of the Sanctuary in the present article. Most of the collections of photographs require studies and digitalization. They are pending to be published online. Lots of photographs in the Provincial Archive and in the monastery’s archive require ordering. They are scattered mostly in the Provincial Archive over the personal records of particular monks. Hopefully, soon they will find their place in the National Digital Archives, formed in 2008, which stores the biggest collection of photographs.
