Poland’s Constitution Day commemorates the adoption of the country’s Constitution on 3rd May 1791, which was the first modern written constitution in Europe and the second in the world, after the United States Constitution. The Constitution of 3rd May 1791 was a significant moment in Polish history, as it sought to establish a democratic and egalitarian society, with guarantees of individual freedoms and rights. The constitution was also seen as a response to the partitions of Poland, as it aimed to strengthen the country’s unity and sovereignty.

The event also featured cultural performances, music, and a display of traditional Polish cuisine, including delicious dishes such as pierogis, kielbasa, and bigos.
