The Jasna Góra Monastery in Częstochowa, Poland, is a famous Polish shrine to the Virgin Mary and one of the country's places of pilgrimage – for many the monastery is a spiritual capital. The image of the Black Madonna of Częstochowa, also known as Our Lady of Częstochowa, to which miraculous powers are attributed, is one of Jasna Góra's most precious treasures.

Jasna Gora on katolinen luostari eteläisessä Puolassa Częstochowan kaupungin lähellä. Jasna Goran luostari on yksi katolisen maailman tunnetuimpia pyhiinvaelluskohteita. 1300-luvulla perustetun luostarin maalaus, Musta madonna eli Pyhä madonna, on katolisessa kulttuurissa monien tarinoiden ja pelastuskertomusten lähde.
