Summary/Abstract: The article depicts a problem which was not properly analysed by Polish historians. It is a role played by Anna I Jagiellonka during election of her nephew, Zygmunt, to the Polish throne. The issue was neglected mostly because Anna I Jagiellonka was trying to keep continuity of Jagiellonian dynasty through her nephew’s election, but historians do not include Zygmunt III neither his sons to this dynasty, finishing it on the 1572 year, without noticing the obvious fact that Anna I was also a king from Jagiellonian dynasty. What is more, after her husband, Stefan Batory’s, death, she still was a king. Because of that, her will could not have been disregarded. Queen-widow and in the same time the king in one person agreed to resign from her rights under a condition that her nephew would be elected to the throne.
