Abstract

This article contains preliminary findings concerning the foundation of the prepositure of Canons Regular of the Lateran at Żdżary near Nowe Miasto nad Pilicą. The prepositure has not yet had a study of its history and is practically absent from the historical scientific debate. However, it played a significant cultural role in the region and knowledge about it will undoubtedly be useful to researchers dealing with the past of Mazovia, but above all to those dealing with the history and culture of the area in which the centre operated for over two hundred years.

Keywords:

geography and religious culture of Mazovia, Orders in Mazovia, Canons Regular of the Lateran
