This marriage caused an unprecedented political scandal, and the king's mother, Bona Sforza, and Polish nobles did everything they could to separate them. Despite immense pressure, Sigismund managed to have Barbara crowned, but her triumph was short-lived \u2013 she soon died. The king's grief was endless; he escorted her coffin barefoot from Krakow to Vilnius. For the rest of his life, he remained faithful to her memory, and their love became one of the most prominent legends in Lithuanian history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Locations and attractions<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.valdovurumai.lt\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.valdovurumai.lt\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Palace of the Rulers<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.katedra.lt\/?id=147\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.katedra.lt\/?id=147\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Royal crypts of Vilnius Cathedral<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>","protected":false},"featured_media":2073,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"class_list":["post-2003","sm_legend","type-sm_legend","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>\u017dygimantas Augustas ir Barbora Radvilait\u0117 - Slapta Meil\u0117<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/slaptameile.lt\/en\/sm_legend\/zygimantas-augustas-ir-barbora-radvilaite-vilnius-lietuva\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"\u017dygimantas Augustas ir Barbora Radvilait\u0117 - Slapta Meil\u0117\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Lietuvos didysis kunigaik\u0161tis \u017dygimantas Augustas slapta ved\u0117 jaun\u0105 na\u0161l\u0119 Barbor\u0105 Radvilait\u0119, rizikuodamas savo kar\u016bna ir valstyb\u0117s stabilumu. \u0160i santuoka suk\u0117l\u0117 nereg\u0117t\u0105 politin\u012f skandal\u0105, o karaliaus motina Bona Sforca bei lenk\u0173 bajorai dar\u0117 visk\u0105, kad juos i\u0161skirt\u0173.
