[Notes From Poland] A Polish monk who spent the last 23 years of his life living in seclusion and was the last man in Poland to be officially recognised as a hermit by the Catholic Church has died.
Elizeusz Janikowski had lived a solitary life at a hermitage (pictured above) without running water or electricity atop Cierniak Hill in the Kłodzko Valley in southwestern Poland.
He passed away on Saturday morning at the age of 69 after a long illness, confirmed the parish of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary in Czerwona Woda.
