Alcohol Ban During Papal Visit

 

Alcohol will be banned from sale from all shops and bars in the Krakow and Warsaw regions during the first visit to Poland of Pope Benedict in late May.

Pope Benedict’s three day schedule, from may 25 to may 28 will include stops in Krakow, Warsaw, the site of the Nazi death camp at Auschwitz and to the Shrine of the Black Madonna, Czestochowa.

A similar drinks ban was put in place during visits by Pope John Paul II to his homeland.
