The Ruch Katolicko-Narodowy (German: Catholic National Movement , abbreviation: RKN) is a small right-wing national - clerical political group in Poland .

It was founded in 1997 by Antoni Macierewicz after the Ruch Odbudowy Polski (ROP) collapsed . Because of its proximity to the Catholic radio station Radio Maryja , its supporters also call it the “Marienpartei” ( Partia Maryja ). According to her own presentation, her basic goals are the “protection of the family, the Catholic Church and national interests”.

In the 2005 parliamentary elections , she was able to send five members to the Sejm via the list of the League of Polish Families . She has not been represented in the Sejm since the parliamentary elections in 2007 .
