The wonderworking Czestochowa Icon of the Most Holy Theotokos is to be found in a Roman Catholic monastery at Yasna Gora near the city of Czestochowa, Petrov Province. It is believed to be one of the seventy icons painted by the holy Apostle and Evangelist Luke (October 18). Tradition says that the icon was taken from Jerusalem when the Romans conquered the city in the year 66, and was hidden in a cave near Pella. The icon was given to Saint Helen (May 21) when she visited the Holy Land in 326, and she brought it back to Constantinople with her.

Unique Museum copy of Virgin of Poland the Black Virgin.Probably it comes from Byzantian Greece and is ascribed to Saint Luke the Evangelist. The icon is found in Poland since 1382 A.D. The icon belongs to the iconograthic type of the Hodegetriaand symbolizes the Virgin of Victory and of Glory.
