The oldest processions organized on the occasion of this holiday going back to XIV century left the cathedral, but these processions I omit in this dissertation. However, the processions from particular churches (according to the oldest sources from XVI century) were connected to the cathedral procession while in the Corpus Christi octave went separately to Kazimierz church under the invocation of Corpus Christi. This tradition was unpractical and vexing, so the efforts were made to introduce new practices, but they were not be accepted. In this serious situation the Bishop Zaluski executed radical conception and organization changes and introduced them as the decree. He introduced also many disciplinary and ordinal decrees to make these processions liturgically more serious and more distinct. The schedule o f the processions in this ceremonial week with the statement of later XIX century practice is in attached chart. This schedule shows how ceremonial character had the Corpus Christi octave in Krakow. Not all processions were popular for worshippers, not all had the same setting, but some o f them were full of religious and folk ceremonial character. One of them was Marian and Dominican procession, because of the fact, that their route was round the Market, as the Wawel procession. If you believe in the annalists words, these divine services gathered throngs of people. The other processions were not so significant, especially in the end of discussed period, because almost every church had its own procession. Their routes were limited to the streets adhered the specific church. Preserved archival materials sometimes uncover detailed and interesting information, but do not allow to reconstruct entire image of these celebrations.
