During his tenure as castellan, Tarło became a patron of the Catholic Church. In 1621 he was the first to propose establishing a monastery for the Franciscan Reformati in the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth, at Zakliczyn on the Dunajec; the friars arrived there on 19 June 1622, making it the first Reformati house in the Commonwealth.[2]
