"In the shadow of an old tree in Łańcut, a love was born that united two extraordinary people – King Władysław Jagiełło and Elżbieta Granowska."

What to Expect

Many events involving powerful families, politics, and the region's history have been recorded in the history of Łańcut. However, one of the most beautiful stories connected with this place is not about power, but about love. It is here, according to local tradition, that the love story of King Władysław Jagiełło and Elżbieta Granowska took place – a woman for whom the monarch was willing to follow the call of his heart.

Łańcut, a small town bathed in sunlight, became the backdrop for a story unrelated to war or politics – but about love. It was here, on the parsonage hill, Władysław Jagiełło, ruler of a powerful kingdom, faced a decision that neither his advisors nor chroniclers could guide him on. His heart, seasoned by years of rule and battles, found solace in the gaze of Elżbieta Granowska – a woman who was not a young princess from a European court, but something more. She was the one who understood him without words. They say that on that day, when Jagiełło confessed his feelings to her, a warm wind blew in Łańcut. Perhaps it was an ordinary breeze, or maybe history itself held its breath for a moment to remember this moment. The king knelt not before power, but before love – and Łańcut witnessed the moment when monarch and man became one.

In March 1417, Jagiełło, returning from Lithuania to Poland, stopped in Łańcut, which belonged to Elżbieta Granowska. It seems that the decision about the marriage was made there.” Then the wedding took place on May 2, 1417, in Sanok.
