Saint Jadwiga of Poland was born on February 18, 1374.
Jadwiga became king of Poland in 1384 when she was crowned as a monarch despite being a female, due to her status as the daughter of Louis I of Anjou, the King of Hungary and Poland. Her ascension was part of a political strategy to secure the Polish throne for her family, as she was chosen to marry Władysław II Jagiełło, the Grand Duke of Lithuania, which eventually led to the unification of Poland and Lithuania. In 1386, her marriage to Jagiełło was formalized, solidifying her position as a key figure in the kingdom's future. Jadwiga is remembered for her piety and charitable works, which contributed to her legacy as a beloved monarch.
