The 8th Congress of Polish Medievalists will be held from September 17 to 20, 2025 in Gniezno under the slogan "Power - crown - territory". Both the place and the main theme of this "medievalists' festival" refer to the jubilee of the first Polish royal coronation in 1025. This is another edition of the event initiated almost a quarter of a century ago by the Standing Committee of Polish Medievalists.

We hope that the congress will become one of the most important events in the celebration of this anniversary, which is so important for our history. We expect that it will also be an excellent opportunity to present research problems and discuss them in an interdisciplinary group of people dealing not only with science, but also with popularizing the broadly understood Middle Ages.
