After retirement
In 2021 the Holy See has punished Golebiewski together with around ten other Polish bishops and archbishops over reported cover-ups of sexual abuse of minors by priests under their authority.
The Vatican had reviewed reports of alleged negligence by the retired archbishop. The probe covered the years from 1996 to 2004, when Golebiewski was head of the Koszalin diocese, and 2004 to 2013, when he led the Wroclaw archdiocese.
As a result, the Vatican has banned Golebiewski from appearing at any public religious or lay ceremonies and has ordered him to donate from his own pocket to a foundation preventing sexual abuse and supporting its victims. He was made to do repentance.[10]
