The study is aimed at analysing the itinerary of Prince Sigismund Jagiellon from the time when this future Polish-Lithuanian monarch acted as one of the Silesian territorial princes and governor representing his brother Vladislav in Silesia and Lusatia. The centre of interest was mobility as one of the tools of the power representation of the late-medieval ruler

The aim of the study is to present the potential of the surviving register of revenue and expenditure of the King of Hungary from 1494–1495 in relation to research on the personal composition of the royal court of Hungary and Bohemia. At the same time, emphasis was placed on the circle of persons from outside the Kingdom of Hungary. Analysis of the account material shows that after 1490, a group of people from the Czech Lands formed a group at the court in Buda that could not be overlooked. If we add to them identified courtiers of Polish – Lithuanian origin or with roots in the German regions of the Holy Roman Empire, they make up more than 60% of the people of noble origin, who gave colour to the court of King Vladislav Jagiello in Buda. A detailed prosopographical analysis of Vladislav’s court in the period 1490–1516 is still lacking. However, the partial analysis of the situation in the mid 1490s shows that it was not just the Hungarian court with a not very important Bohemian appendix, but an institution fully representing both the Hungarian and Bohemian parts of Vladislav’s realms.

This study presents a probe into the field of beverage culture as it was cultivated in the late 15th and early 16th century at the courts of the descendants of Casimir IV († 1492) ruler of Poland and Lithuania of the Jagiellonian dynasty: King Vladislaus († 1516) of Bohemia and Hungary, his son, King Louis († 1526) of Bohemia and Hungary, and then his brothers, King John Albert († 1501) of Poland, the Grand Duke of Lithuania and later also King of Poland Alexander († 1506) and the future ruler of Poland-Lithuania (the then Duke of Opava and Głogów and the governor of Silesia and Lusatia) Sigismund († 1548). The starting point of the research was a comprehensive analysis of rare, preserved account books kept at the courts of these monarchs. This study describes the various types of beverages consumed (especially wine and beer) both in the social and geographical contexts. In addition, it also includes the sphere of consumers’ taste preferences.
