Pope John Paul II served as a priest, Bishop and Cardinal in Krakow before becoming Pontiff. This plaque was placed here a year after his death.
This plaque features a sculpted rose which is polished to a different hue than the rest of the plaque which reads:
"DALES NAM WIARE I NADZIEJE
DALES SOLIDARNOSC I WOLNOSC
BLOGOSLAV OJCZE KAZDEGO DNIA
UKOCHANEMU MIASTU
UMILOWANEMU OJCU SWIETEMU
JANOWI PAWLOWI II
WIELKIEMU POLAKOWI
11 LISTOPADA 2006 ROKU WDZIECZNI KRAKOWIANE"
which Google translates as:
"You have given us faith and hope
You have given SOLIDARITY AND FREEDOM
FATHER bless every day
beloved CITY
Beloved Holy Father
John Paul II
great Pole
11 NOVEMBER 2006 THE YEAR grateful to Krakow
