In Lithuanian historical consciousness, the Queen of Poland and Grand Duchess of Lithuania, Barbara Radziwiłł (1522-1551), is one the most well-known Lithuanian women of all time. What was she like personally? What were her hobbies and what did she enjoy doing in daily life?
Barbara was full of joy and widely known for her emotional character. She adored hunting, dancing, music, jewellery and bathing. Her interest in bathing has long remained in the historical consciousness of the people living in and around Vilnius. As early as the 19th century, the royal manor was known by many as Barbara’s Bath (Łaźnia Barbary).
She used to take long and frequent baths in a tub of heated water. Her skin smelled of fragrant essential oils and her soft and supple hands were a source of admiration.
King Sigismund II Augustus was also very impressed by Barbara’s interest in different cleanliness rituals.
The Queen Mother, Bona Sforza, noticed that her son had picked up the habit of washing regularly from his beloved wife, falling in love with perfume and bathing.
