This article is a study on Catholicism in the Polish People’s Republic and the state authorities’ policy towards the Catholic Church. In October 1959, the metal tower of a Warsaw church began to glow, hich was especially visible at night. The phenomenon was not explained scientifically, and interpreter by many people as a miracle, a sign from God. Many people even saw the Mother of God at the top of the tower. For several weeks, the church attracted crowds of many thousands of gawkers, curious onlookers, and pilgrims. The author describes the reaction of the Church authorities, state authorities (repressive apparatus), and common people drawn to the extraordinary event. The miracle in the Warsaw district of Muranów is one of the most spectacular examples of the manifestation of the believers’ miraculous sensitivity (consciousness).
