NOVEMBER 1 - ALL SAINTS 'DAY IN POLAND All Saints NOVEMBER 1 - ALL SAINTS 'DAY IN POLAND

All Saints Day (Dzień Wszystkich Świętych) - or simply “All Saints” (Wszystkich Świętych) - is a traditional spiritual holiday celebrated by the Catholic Church on November 1 in honor of all known and unknown saints and martyrs. In Orthodoxy there is an analogue to this holiday - the Cathedral of All Saints, but it is not tied to a specific date.

7 FAMOUS RUSSIANS WHO ARE REALLY POLISH Russia ha 7 FAMOUS RUSSIANS WHO ARE REALLY POLISH

Russia had many outstanding personalities who glorified the country and the entire Russian people, not only in Europe, but throughout the world. We habitually perceive them as Russians, but if we begin to understand their biography in detail, it turns out that many of them are not quite Russian.

Others are even completely non-Russian.

For example, one of the founders of cosmonautics, the outstanding Soviet scientist Yu. V. Kondratyuk, who calculated the optimal flight trajectory to the moon (later used by NASA), spent his whole life with a fake passport. Everyone knew him as a Ukrainian, although in reality he was the son of a Jew and a German baroness.

He was simply afraid of reprisals from the Soviet government. And there are a lot of such examples. This article focuses on famous people who had Polish roots. There were also quite a few of them, but we chose only the most famous personalities.

SCULPTURAL FOUNTAINS OF MALGOZHANY CHODAKOVSKA: A SCULPTURAL FOUNTAINS OF MALGOZHANY CHODAKOVSKA: A MODERN VIEW OF THE WORLD

The world of sculpture does not stand still. Now such works of art are increasingly beneficial not only for their aesthetic appearance, but also create harmony with nature. Polish sculptor Malgorzata Chodakovska was able to combine bronze and the element of water in her work, making sculptural art even more unique in human life.

For any woman, the element of water is considered natural. Therefore, Chodakovska is trying to transfer such natural beauty to the life of a big city. The Polish sculptor does more than just make bronze sculptures with fountains.

ABOUT POLISH VODKA Russians and Poles have a comm ABOUT POLISH VODKA

Russians and Poles have a common origin and speak quite similar languages. This circumstance has always given rise to speculations about the closeness of the two peoples. On closer examination, their similarities are unlikely to be too deep. However, there is something that certainly unites the people of Russia and Poland. This something is love for one and the same intoxicating drink, which in Polish is called wódka.
