The article explores the historical development, filiation connections, and foundational circumstances of the Cistercian abbey in Paradyż, located in Greater Poland, during the Middle Ages. The analysis begins with an examination of the abbey’s origins, tracing its roots within the broader Cistercian monastic network and highlighting the role of its mother abbey in its establishment. It further investigates the socio-political, economic, and religious factors that influenced its foundation, including the patronage of local nobility and the interplay with regional ecclesiastical structures. By situating the abbey within the context of the medieval monastic expansion, the paper sheds light on its significance as a spiritual, cultural, and economic centre in Greater Poland, contributing to the broader narrative of monasticism in medieval Europe.
