Sigismund - Wikipedia, den fria encyklopedin (1514 words)
Sigismund, son till Johan III och den polska prinsessan Katarina, dotter till Sigismund I av Polen, föddes den 20 juni 1566 under föräldrarnas fångenskap 1563-1567 på Gripsholms slott och blev genom faderns tronbestigning 1569 närmaste arvinge till den svenska kronan.
I Polen blev Sigismund inte populär; han var "alltför tystlåten, envis, långsam, njugg och mjältsjuk" (Olof von Dalin), och hans böjelse för gunstlingar och sidoinflytanden framträdde från början.
Sigismund fortsatte emellertid abdikationsförhandlingarna och äktade i samband därmed ärkehertiginnan Anna av Steiermark, dotter till ärkehertig Karl av Steiermark, i Kraków i maj 1592.
