In consequence to the desire of the faithful who want to adore the Lord Jesus at various times of the day, Archbishop Józef Kupiny wants the chapel of the 24h Adoration to be located on Ostrów Tumski within the Wrocław Cathedral – he announced a year ago with a cover, 13 January 2022, parish priest of the cathedral, Fr.
Following the Archbishop's wish, two-track preparations began – on the spiritual track, through the monthly intention of an “adventure” on Jasna Góra and weekly intent prayers in the Wrocław Cathedral and the administrative-executive track, by preparing the concept and obtaining conservation approval.
Given the circumstances, this is simply a reasonably apparent road and has been reworked respective times. During the memorable Swedish flood, Jasna Góra besides survived thanks to specified a combination of forces and means – she was powerfully fainted and independently Jędrek Kmicic blew up a delicate kolubrin.
After considering the situation, the Archbishop's Scientific-Conservatorial Council concluded that it was impossible to virtually meet the preliminary anticipation of specified preparation of the chapel "not to violate the structure of this place and preserve the heritage of culture and art that this chapel constitutes" – as Fr. And since the faithful – vox populi vox Dei – anticipate adoration only and only in the cathedral and what is more – is the Archbishop's wish, this is how it is to happen. Roma locuta, causa finita.
In the walls of the Baroque chapel, 20 - 4 hours of answer will be struck so that the faithful can satisfy their abruptly revealed spiritual request at all times of day and night. As the advanced technological and Conservatorial Council has written from a far-reaching charm, it is simply a "least invasive solution" to usage large recesses in the smooth part of the chapel facade.
Under this curiosal message there were formally professional and so far respected Wrocław signatures – architect Maciej Małachowicz, manager of the National Museum in Wrocław Prof. Piotr Oszczanowski and prof. of architecture Ewa Łużyniecki from Wroclaw University of Technology.
In my opinion, expertise has been suppressed by availability, and respect has gone irretrievably – regardless of specified or another positions presently occupied by the above mentioned. Sic transit gloria ... A small character would be enough.
It is not amazing that the proposal did not impress the Provincial Council for the Protection of Landmarks, which said that "the proposed interference would constitute unacceptable distortion". And then, with a unusual chance, like dea ex machina, like Kmicic close Jasna Góra, she accidentally appeared in the Cathedral of Elżbieta Witek, Marshal of the Sejm, PiSowska patroness of Lower Silesia.
By miraculous decree of fate, the Private Faithful Elizabeth Witek, the prime voto of Jawor, the secundo voto of Warsaw, during her accidental visit to the chapel, came upon Archbishop and the Provincial Conservative. Man shoots, Lord God carries bullets...
The cognition comes from experience, and I see here the marshalry in the function of Kmicic preparing to blow up a collubrin that threatens the interests of the sacrum. That's how I feel. In this scenario, I was confirmed by a feverish phillipika of Orlenów writing entitled Gazeta Wrocławska, where in critical statements on this subject the demolition of the cathedral chapel saw "infringements of the space of the sacrum". Overzealous is bad and embarrassing.
