The tenth anniversary of adopting the Constitution of the Republic of Poland on 2nd April 1997 became an opportunity to reflect on the system of the state, functioning of its institutions and the status of the individual. The subject literature hardy ever tackles the topic of values that the state constitutional system is based on. Furthermore, there are no studies devoted to The axiology of the Constitution of the Republic of Poland in postulates of the Polish Episcopate. The present study aims to present and analyze the postulates of the Polish Episcopate which concern the axiology of the Constitution of the Republic of Poland. The postulates were voiced in the form of official standpoints, letters to the congregation and communiqués from plenary sessions of the Polish Episcopate Conference and meetings of the Stable Council
