Territorial Archdeaconry of Lublin
Abstract
The article attempts to summarise the current findings regarding the history of the Lublin Territorial Archdeaconry. Particular emphasis is placed on the scholarly debate concerning the origin and establishment of this ecclesiastical administrative unit. The study presents both the prevailing viewpoints that have shaped the discourse and alternative standpoints that challenge commonly accepted narratives, thereby highlighting the need for further research. Notably, the overlooked works of Józef Szymański seem particularly inspiring. Additionally, the article examines issues related to the territorial scope, internal administrative divisions, stages of the development of the ecclesiastical network within the Lublin Archdeaconry, as well as those who held the office of Lublin archdeacon.
