The monastery in Wronki belongs to the oldest religious foundations in the archdiocese of Poznań. Its long history can be divided into two periods: Dominican and Franciscan. The Dominican period began in 1279 and ended in 1835, when the Prussian authorities canceled religious orders. After the dissolution, it was to be changed into secular purposes and even destructed. In 1854, a Citizens' Committee was established, which decided to save this monument of faith and Polishness. This goal was achieved. In 1868, after purchasing the church and the monastery from private hands, the Citizens’ Committee gave the church to the disposal of Gniezno and Mieczysław Hala Ledóchowski, the Archbishop of Poznań, and he gave it to the Franciscans / reformers. The Franciscans only worked in it for 7 years.  In 1875, the Prussian authorities closed the monastery and removed the monks. We publish a speech delivered by Fr. Wincenty Kałkowski, vicar from Ostroroga, because of the content contained in it and the great rarity of this print. In 1924, the Franciscans returned to Wronki and in the recovered monastery they organized a lower seminary and in 1931 a theological study. Since 1991, the monastery has been operating the Higher Franciscan Seminary, which is affiliated to the Faculty of Theology of the University of Adam Mickiewicz in Poznan.

Klasztor we Wronkach należy do najstarszych fundacji zakonnych na terenie archidiecezji poznańskiej. Jego długą historię można podzielić na dwa okresy: dominikański i franciszkański. Okres dominikański rozpoczął się w 1279 a zakończył w 1835 roku, kiedy władze pruskie skasowały na swoim terenie zakony. Po kasacie groziła mu zamiana na cele świeckie a nawet całkowite zniszczenie. W 1854 roku powstał Komitet obywatelski, który postanowił ten pomnik wiary i polskości uratować. Ten cel udało się osiągnąć. W 1868 roku, po wykupieniu kościoła i klasztoru z rąk prywatnych, wspomniany Komitet obywatelski przekazał kościół do dyspozycji arcybiskupa gnieźnieńskiego i poznańskiego Mieczysława Halki Ledóchowskiego, ten zaś oddał go franciszkanom/reformatom. Franciszkanie pracowali przy nim zaledwie 7 lat. W 1875 roku władze pruskie zamknęły klasztor a zakonników usunęły. Publikujemy mowę, którą na pożegnanie franciszkanów wygłosił ks. Wincenty Kałkowski, wikariusz z Ostroroga, ze względu na zawartą w niej treść i wielką rzadkość tego druku. W 1924 roku  franciszkanie wrócili do Wronek i w odzyskanym klasztorze urządzili niższe seminarium duchowne a w 1931 roku studium teologiczne. Od 1991 roku w klasztorze działa Wyższe Seminarium Duchowne Franciszkanów, które jest afiliowane do Wydziału Teologicznego Uniwersytetu im. Adama Mickiewicza w Poznaniu.

Jan Kapistran Szysiecki (ca. 1680-1753) was among the most renowned Bernardine monks of the turn of the 17th and 18th century. He was the author of several theological works, and it was also on his initiative that the church of St. Francis of Assisi in Poznań obtained a new fa9ade crowned with two double-clearance cupolas. Moreover, the church was fitted with a new organ, the biggest in Greater Poland which was designed by Michał Engler the Younger, a recognized Silesian organ master. New bells were hung on the tower and the chapel of the Holy House of Loreto was built. In January 1945 during the fight to liberate Poznań, the monastery and the church were destroyed in 75 per cent. Reconstruction lasted until 1989. A faithful reconstruction of the tower cupolas done in 1982 was a major achievement.

St. Peter of Alcantara (1499-1562) is among the most outstanding representatives of the golden age of Spanish mysticism. His greatest merit lay in popularizing the theological principles of prayer in his “Treatise on Prayer and Meditation”, written in simple language. It is a compendium of the author’s profound reflections and advice on prayer which he derived from the practice of his own life, his experience as spiritual director and confessor, and from the study of ascetic works. Thanks to the efforts of the Poznań Bernardines this modest book appeared in print in Poznań in 1627 in the renowned printing house of Jan Wolrab. It is a format 12o print, bound in pig skin without any ornaments, comprising 409 pages plus an index. The text contains three engravings. One of them shows St. Francis of Assisi receiving the stigmata on Mount Alvernia on 14 September 1224. There are two more engravings in the book, which confirms the opinion that Jan Wolrab paid attention to the aesthetic side of his prints.

In 1947 after 111 years of absence the Franciscans returned to Poznań and reclaimed their former monastery and church dedicated to St. Francis of Assisi, which was destroyed during World War II in 75%. By 1957 they managed to rebuild the chapel of Our Lady of Loreto, the church and the monastery. From the beginning they conducted ministry in their church as well as preached at the popular missions and retreats in many parishes. On the request of the Poznań Archbishop Walenty Dymek, in 1947 they started a continual confessional duty. Referring to an old tradition initiated by St. Francis of Assisi, from 1949 onwards during the Christmas season they build an imposing crèche which attracts large crowds of the faithful. The more important ecclesial celebrations were accompanied by the singing of the seminarists of the Poznań seminary and the choir directed by Stefan Stuligrosz.

IW 1947 r., po 111 latach nieobecności, powrócili do Poznania franciszkanie i objęli swój dawny klasztor i kościół pw. św. Franciszka z Asyżu, zniszczony w czasie II wojny światowej w 75%. Do 1957 r. zdołali odbudować kaplicę Matki Bożej Loretańskiej, kościół i  klasztor. Od samego początku prowadzili działalność duszpasterską w swoim kościele, ponadto głosili misje ludowe i rekolekcje w wielu parafiach. Na życzenie arcybiskupa poznańskiego Walentego Dymka w 1949 r. zaprowadzili stały dyżur spowiadania. Nawiązując do starej tradycji zapoczątkowanej przez św. Franciszka z Asyżu, od 1949 r. w okresie Bożego Narodzenia budują okazały żłóbek, który przyciąga wielkie rzesze wiernych. Znaczniejsze uroczystości kościelne uświetniali swoim śpiewem klerycy poznańskiego seminarium duchownego i chór pod dyrekcją Stefana Stuligrosza.
