The 42-year-old Nawrocki has been endorsed by the right-wing Law and Justice (PiS) party, which governed Poland from 2015 to 2023.
Nawrocki campaigned under the slogan “Poland first, Poles first”.
He said in a campaign video in April that “social benefits will be above all for Poles” and that “in queues for doctors and clinics, Polish citizens must have priority”.
He opposes Ukraine’s bid to join NATO.
Nawrocki is an admirer of Donald Trump and has said Poland should focus on shaping and leading Europe’s relations with the US president.
The two were shown giving a thumbs up in photos released by the White House.
US Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem also endorsed Nawrocki when she attended a conservative conference in Poland, saying: “He needs to be the next president.”
While wooing voters during the campaign, Nawrocki signed an eight-point pledge prepared by far-right leader Slawomir Mentzen.
While arguing against a property tax, he claimed to only own one flat. Later it was revealed he had acquired a second one through a convoluted deal with an elderly man.
Nawrocki called the accusations “a bunch of lies” and said he would sue the news site.
He served as the director of the World War II museum in Gdansk from 2017 to 2021. Since then, he has led the Institute of National Remembrance, which investigates Nazi and communist-era crimes.
Last year, Russia added Nawrocki to its wanted list for his alleged efforts to remove Soviet-era monuments in Poland.
- Dual identity -
In 2018, he secretly published a book about the communist-era gangster Nikodem Skotarczak using the pseudonym Tadeusz Batyr.
Nawrocki later wrote on social media that Batyr had sought his advice and “thanked me with an interesting book, which I recommend”.
Political opponents seized on the revelation.
“No one has ever heard a good word from me about Nazism,“ he said.
He lives with his wife, Marta, and has two children and an adult stepson.
