We present R-band polarimetry and photometry for Supernova 2005cs. The polarimetric observations were performed with the AZT-8 telescope at the Crimean Astrophysical Observatory (Ukraine) using the ST-7 photometer-polarimeter of the Sobolev Astronomical Institute. A record (for supernovae) linear polarization, p = 8%, was detected; the position angle underwent a jump by ≲90° during the evolution of the supernova brightness. Possible generation mechanisms of the polarized radiation at the photospheric stage of evolution of the supernova are briefly analyzed.
