The Seven Wonders of Poland (Polish: Siedem cudów Polski) is a list of cultural wonders located in Poland.
The creation of the list was supported by Rzeczpospolita daily newspaper. Initially over 400 national monuments were listed by internet users as candidates, however in the second round of selections a board of experts reduced the number to 27. The third and last round - public on line elections - started on 31 August 2007 to select the top seven wonders. Results of the vote were announced on 21 September 2007.
