Biography
Around 1163 (according to other sources - in 1184 ) she became the wife of the Polish king Casimir II the Just ; after his death in 1194, he ruled Poland for five years with his son Leszk Bely . The kingdom ceded to Mieczyslaw (Meshko) III Old .
Elena supported the compromise domestic policy of her husband, a protege of the lords. After the death of Casimir ( 1194 ), the pans conducted his infant son Leshka to the Krakow table, and Helen was introduced into the regency . Elena soon became weighed down by the tutelage of the lords and, fearing for her son’s power, temporarily ceded the Krakow table to the applicant Mesh Old, who recognized Elena’s son as her heir (1200). A year later, Meshko quarreled with the Panas and was banished by them; but Elena, who again didn’t get along with the misters, entered into a new deal with him. Sack again became the Krakow prince.
