President of the Senate of the Free City of Krakow Rev. Jan Schindler, developed a liking for monastery in Bielany. After the Krakow Uprising had been put down, Rev. Schindler withdrew from public life. The foresteria and St John the Baptist's Chapel in the monastic church were the main focus of Schindler's patronage of the Bielany hermitage. In addition to the above, Florkowskis' work on the Camaldolese also mentions the third foundation of Rev. Schindler, namely the restoration of the monastic well.
