Summary

Brother Józef Żarnowiecki, a reclusive figure at Kalwaria Zebrzydowska, is remembered as a humble hermit whose ascetic lifestyle and deep prayer drew pilgrims' attention. His character, shaped by modesty and poverty, left a lasting impact on those who encountered him. The study reconstructs his persona through limited sources—including an interview, a documentary, and pilgrim testimonies—paint a vivid picture of a silent, devout man who became known as 'a Kalwarian’s beggar.' His influence, though subtle, resonated with pilgrims who sought his prayers and small donations. This work serves to preserve the memory of a lesser-known but significant figure in the sanctuary's history.
