The Seminary was founded over 130 years
ago by Father Jozef Dabrowski, who received this mission from
Father Leopold Moczygemba, OFM Conv., the Patriarch of the
Polish American Community. During the Seminary’s rich
history, it has made an outstanding contribution to the Polish
American and broader Catholic faith community, educating
thousands of priests and educators. Thanks to Father
Dabrowski’s exceptional wisdom, clarity of mission, testament,
and example, the Orchard Lake Seminary and related
institutions have been uniquely and generously financed by the
Polish American community throughout their long and
illustrious history.
Thanks to donations and financial support from the
10,000,000-strong Polish American community, Orchard Lake
contains the largest Polish American archives in the United
States, documenting the rich history of Polish diaspora and
its contributions to the United
States. Polish Americans funded the Library and donated
volumes of unique historical books and publications, some
dating back to 1600. Such a collection is of unique
importance: most historical libraries and archives in Poland
were destroyed during the cataclysms of the Second World War.
Therefore, many unique historical artifacts have survived
exclusively in the archive at Orchard Lake.
