Ave Maria is the fifth studio album by Polish singer Maria Peszek, released in 2021 by Mystic Production.[1] Peszek co-wrote and co-produced the material with Kamil Pater. Thematically, the album criticises Poland's conservative politics and child sexual abuse in the Catholic Church, and expresses support towards women's rights and the Polish LGBT community. Peszek described it as "probably the most beautiful album [she has] ever recorded".[2]

Ave Maria received generally positive reviews[3][4] and debuted atop the Polish album sales chart.
