Sanctuary of St. Jadwiga in Trzebnica, also known as Trzebnica Abbey,[2] was a convent for Cistercian nuns in Trzebnica, north of Wrocław, in Lower Silesia, Poland. Founded in 1203, it was abandoned for a few decades during the 19th century, and was subsequently taken over by the Sisters of Mercy of St. Borromeo in 1889.
