Poland is planning to open its first ever exorcism centre near the German border.

A Catholic priest, Andrzej Trojanowski, plans to open the centre for people believed to be possessed by the Devil in Poczernin, 30km to the east of the Baltic city of Szczeczin. The Catholic Church authorised the project in recent weeks.

The exorcism centre is expected to have a chapel and guest rooms and it is expected to be built near the edge of the forest. It plans to offer spiritual help to the needy.

Newspaper, Gazeta Wybrocza, said that there were currently 50 exorcists working in Poland.
