Members of the local mining community and their families are attending the earliest Christmas Eve “Midnight Mass” (Pasterka) in Poland in St. Kinga’s Chapel, about 101 meters underground in the Wieliczka Salt Mine, a UNESCO World Heritage Site near Krakow, Poland, on December 24, 2025. Traditionally held early in the morning, this unique underground Mass is historically bringing together miners from both shifts amid the chapel’s salt-carved chandeliers and decorations.
