This paper attempts to show that a sanctuary can alter urban space. A sanctuary is a very special place because of its religious nature and attracts both pilgrims and tourists. The spatial structure of a sanctuary is determined largely by changes in the volume and nature of pilgrim ‘traffic’. Modern pilgrimage centres are becoming more open to visitors who wish to take part in the life of a sanctuary, even if this involves non-religious activities. The sanctuary's religious offering is supplemented with typical tourism attractions. The establishment of a sanctuary affects the development and spatial organization of a city in a variety of ways. Large sanctuaries favour the development of sanctuary service zones that cater for pilgrims. This is also true in Poland. There are, however, some large and midsize sanctuaries that have no additional facilities designed for pilgrims and this is almost always true of regional and national sanctuaries in Poland.

New pilgrimage centre in Kraków’s Łagiewniki-Borek Fałęcki districtKraków is a city with a unique, rich religious heritage, including major sanctuaries. However, their situation has largely changed over the history. The most important ones started in the 1980s and are still being developed. As a result of the growing worship of Divine Mercy and Sister Faustyna, the convent in Kraków-Łagiewniki has been transformed into an international pilgrimage centre, hosting approx. 2 million pilgrims per year. In the early 21st century a new complex of sacred buildings, the “ Have No Fear ” John Paul II Centre, began to be built in the close vicinity of the sanctuary, as a centre devoted to the worship and remembrance of the great Pole and Pope. In this way a new religious pilgrimage centre sprang up far from the Krakow city centre. The aim of the present article is to present the centre and its importance for religious tourism now promoted in the city.
