The baptism of Prince Mieszko I holds a central place in Polish history, symbolizing the birth of Polish statehood and integration into Western European civilization. It carried profound political, cultural, and identity significance, shaping the trajectory of the nation.

Mieszko I’s adoption of Christianity not only solidified his rule but also laid the groundwork for Poland’s sovereignty and security. By choosing Roman baptism through Czech intermediaries on Holy Saturday in 966 AD, Mieszko I strategically fostered unity within the state.

The National Day of Baptism serves as a moment of reflection for Poland’s rich heritage and reminding citizens of their ongoing responsibilities toward the nation’s future.
